x = number of adult tickets

y = number of children tickets

9x + 6y = 1053

x+y = 127 so x = 127 - y

replace x = 127 - y into 9x + 6y = 1053

9(127 - y) + 6y = 1053

1143 -9y + 6y = 1053

-3y = 1053 -1143

-3y = -90

y = 30

x = 127 - 30

x = 97

answer: 97 adults and 30 children

ANEK [815]

Answer:

The matrix equation is \left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&1&1\\1&-1/2&0\\0&2&-1\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{c}120&35&20\end{array}\right]

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets change the story problem to equations

- The distance between the starting point and checkpoint 1 is x

- The distance between checkpoint 1 to checkpoint 2 is y

- The distance between checkpoint and the finish line is z

- The total distance for the race is 120 miles

∴ x + y + z = 120 ⇒ (1)

-The distance from the starting point to checkpoint 1 is 35 miles

 more than half the distance from checkpoint 1 to checkpoint 2

∵ The distance from the starting point to checkpoint 1 is x

∵ The distance from checkpoint 1 to checkpoint 2 is y

- x is more than half y by 35

∴ x = 35 + (1/2) y ⇒ subtract (1/2) y from both sides

∴ x - (1/2) y = 35 ⇒ (2)

- The distance from checkpoint 2 to the finish line is 20 miles less

 than twice the distance from checkpoint 1 to checkpoint 2

∵ The distance from checkpoint 2 to the finish line is z

∵ the distance from checkpoint 1 to checkpoint 2 is y

- z is less than twice y by 20

∴ z = 2y - 20 ⇒ add 20 to both sides

∴ z + 20 = 2y ⇒ subtract z from both sides

∴ 2y - z = 20 ⇒ (3)

* Now lets write the three equations

# x + y + z = 120 ⇒ (1)

# x - (1/2) y = 35 ⇒ (2)

# 2y - z = 20 ⇒ (3)

- Now lets write the matrix equation that models this situation

∴ \left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&1&1\\1&-1/2&0\\0&2&-1\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{c}120&35&20\end{array}\right]

Suppose a researcher is testing someone to see if he or she can tell Soda X from Soda​ Y, and the researcher is using 28 ​trials
AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

The probability that a person will get 17 or more​ right, if the person is truly​ guessing, is about 12.9%.

The p-value is the probability of obtaining the observed results of a test, assuming that the null hypothesis is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

The system of hypothesis fo this case are:

Null hypothesis: p\leq 0.5

Alternative hypothesis: p >0.5

That's a upper right tailed test.

The p-value is the probability of obtaining the observed results of a test, assuming that the null hypothesis is correct.

And this value allows to reject or not the null hypothesis.

If p_v we reject the null hypotheis at the significance level. That indicates strong evidence against the null hypothesis, so you reject the null hypothesis.

If p_v>\alpha then we say that we fail to reject the null hypothesis at the significance level. That indicates weak evidence against the null hypothesis, so you fail to reject the null hypothesis.
