<u>ANSWER:</u>

The price of senior citizen ticket is $4 and price of child ticket is $7.

<u>SOLUTION: </u>

Given, first day of sales the school sold 3 senior citizen tickets and 9 child tickets for a total of $75.  

The school took in $67 on the second day by selling 8 senior citizen tickets and 5 child tickets.  

We need to find what is the price each of one senior citizen tickets and one child tickets.

Let, the price of senior citizen ticket be "x" and price of child ticket be "y"

Then according to the given information,

3x + 9y = 75

x + 3y = 25  [by cancelling the common term 3.

x = 25 – 3y ---- (1)

And, 8x + 5y = 67 ---- (2)

Substitute (1) in (2)

8(25 – 3y) + 5y = 67

200 – 24y + 5y = 67

5y – 24y = 67 – 200

-19y = -133

y = \frac{133}{19}

y = 7

Now substitute y value in (1)

x = 25 – 3(7)

x = 25 – 21  = 4

Hence, the price of senior citizen ticket is $4 and price of child ticket is $7.

Mariana [72]

Answer:

c) at most 11.1%

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the data that is 97 ± 12, with 97 being the mean and 12 the standard deviation.

Now, the percentage of people who reached them for less than 73 dollars, if it were a normal distribution:

z = (73 - 97) / 12 = - 2

so it would be, a probability of 0.0228 or 0.228%.

But we don't know what distribution it has, but we can get an idea.

A and D discarded, as they are very high values, and 73 is well below the average.

B) is still a very high value.

Therefore the answer is C, at most 11.1%

Slope 4.2; y-intercept (0,3.4)
umka2103 [35]

Answer:I don't know if you're asking for equation or not cause you didn't mention the question so I'm just gonna write down the equation.

y=4.2x+3.4

Use this formula➡️y=mx+b

m is slope, b is y-intercept , x and y are the points like (0, 3.4)

You said it's the y-intercept but it's not. it's just a point on the graph
