Set x as adult tickets.
Set y as children's tickets.
x + y = 15
30x + 20y = 270
Solve for x in the first equation.
x + y = 15
x = 15 - y
Plug this into the second equation.
30x + 20y = 270
30(15 - y) + 20y = 270
450 - 30y + 20y = 270
450 - 10y = 270
-10y = -180
y = 18
If there is 18 childrens tickets, there should be -3 adult tickets.
This is impossible, and this impossible answer occured because the question is written wrong.
There are a total of 15 tickets
The smallest costing ticket is the childrens ticket, which costs 20$.
If he only bought children tickets, this would be 20x15 which is 300$.
300$ is over 270$, which makes the question impossible.

Which answer shows this equation written in standard form?
STatiana [176]
4-3(x-y)=-8x+2
=4-3x-3y=-8x+2
=4-3x+8x-3y-2
=5x-3y+2
or 
5x-3y=-2
so it will be C=5x+3y=-2

Compare the scores: a score of 75 on a test with a mean of 65 and a standard deviation of 8 and a score of 75 on a test with a m
LiRa [457]

Answer:

The Zscore for both test is the same

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

TEST 1:

score (x) = 75

Mean (m) = 65

Standard deviation (s) = 8

TEST 2:

score (x) = 75

Mean (m) = 70

Standard deviation (s) = 4

USING the relation to obtain the standardized score :

Zscore = (x - m) / s

TEST 1:

Zscore = (75 - 65) / 8

Zscore = 10/8

Zscore = 1.25

TEST 2:

Zscore = (75 - 70) / 4

Zscore = 5/4

Zscore = 1.25

The standardized score for both test is the same.
