Answer: 194 children, 46 students and 97 adults attended.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number children that attended.

Let y represent the number students that attended.

Let z represent the number adults that attended.

The movie theater has a seating capacity of 337. Assuming it was filled to capacity, It means that

x + y + z = 337- - - - - - - - - - -1

The theater charges $5.00 for children, $7.00 for students, and $12.00 of adults. If the total ticket sales was $ 2456, it means that

5x + 7y + 12z = 2456- - - - - - - - -2

There are half as many adults as there are children. It means that

z = x/2

x = 2z

Substituting x = 2z into equation 1 and equation 2, it becomes

2z + y + z - 337

y + 3z = 337- - -- - - - - - -3

5 × 2z + 7y + 12z = 2456

10z + 7y + 12z = 2456

7y + 22z = 2456- - - - - - - -4

Multiplying equation 3 by 7 and equation 4 by 1, it becomes

7y + 21z = 2359

7y + 22z = 2456

Subtracting, it becomes

- z = - 97

z = 97

x = 2z = 2 × 97

x = 194

Substituting x = 194 and z = 97 into equation 1, it becomes

194 + y + 97 = 337

y + 291 = 337

y = 337 - 291

y = 46

Grace [21]

Answer: The results do not represent the population because the sample does not represent professors from different areas.


Step-by-step explanation:

Since Traverion wants to find the answer to the question “How much money does the average college professor make?”

He only surveys 50 professors from the university in his hometown.

Although he should survey professors from different areas but he only perform his survey only a specific university in his hometown.

Therefore, the survey is biased as the sample size is too small.

Hence, The results do not represent the population because the sample does not represent professors from different areas.

Jason is considering two different jobs that he has been offered and he likes the atmosphere and
aniked [119]

The amount of money that Jason will receive in one year after all deductions have been taken for each company is $30,780.5 and $32562.

<h3>What is the final amount?</h3>

With the first job, he would be an apartment property manager for AMLI Company.

This job is offering Jason an hourly rate of $19. 00 an hour plus a weekly bonus of $40 for each new tenant he sets a one-year lease-up with.

The company expects Jason to work all 52 weeks of the year and 40 hours per week.

He was told he could expect to set up an average of 5 lease agreements for each week that he works.

The amount after one year will be given by an equation

Let y be the amount, x be the number of hours in a week and z be the number of the week.

y = 19x + 40z

The total number of hours in a year will be

x = 2080

Then

y = 19 × 2080 + 40 × 52

y = $ 41,600

The amount after the deduction of Social Security (6. 2%), Medicare (1. 2%), State Income Tax (3%), and Federal Income Tax (14%) will be

→ 41,600 × 0.938 × 0.988 × 0.97 × 0.86

→ $ 32,160.5

The amount after the insurance will be

Amount = 32160.5 - 115 × 12

Amount = $ 30780.5

With the second job, he would work as a water treatment facility manager in Gwinnett County. He would be paid an annual salary of $46,000 a year, there are no bonuses and he gets a week off.

The amount after the deduction of Social Security (6. 2%), Medicare (1. 2%), State Income Tax (3%), and Federal Income Tax (14%) will be

→ 46,000 × 0.938 × 0.988 × 0.97 × 0.86

→ $ 35,562

The amount after the insurance will be

Let the number of the worker be 10. Then

Amount = 35,562 - 10 × 12 × 25

Amount = 35562 - 3000

Amount = $32562

More about the final amount link is given below.
