Given:
tickets for adults - 25
tickets for kids - 15
initial cost - 450
increase in tickets for kids to - 18
cost after increase - 480

let x be number of adults and y be number of kids

25x + 15y = 450
25x + 18y = 480

subtraction:

25x + 15y = 450
<u>-25x - 18y = -480</u>
 0      - 3y = - 30
         y = -30/-3
         y = 10

There are 10 kids.

25x + 15y = 450
25x + 15(10) = 450
25x + 150 = 450
25x = 450 - 150
25x = 300
x = 300/25
x = 12

There are 12 adults.

All in all there are 12 adults and 10 kids.

to check:
25x + 15y = 450
25(12) + 15(10) = 450
300 + 150 = 450
450 = 450

25x + 18y = 480
25(12) + 18(10) = 480
300 + 180 = 480
480 = 480

Hi, I need help with this question. Here is the question: For which data set is the median greater than the mean?
FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

Set 2

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the median of each set (the median being the number in the middle):

(1) { 4,7,10,13,16} = 10

(2) {8,9,10,18,19} = 10

(3) {8,9,10,11,12} = 10

(4) {1,2,10,11, 12} = 10

Then find the mean of each set (the mean being average of all the numbers, to find the average add up all the numbers and divide by the amount of numbers):

(1) { 4,7,10,13,16} = 10

(2) {8,9,10,18,19} = 12.8

(3) {8,9,10,11,12} = 10

(4) {1,2,10,11, 12} = 7.2

the answer being 12.8 since 12.8 is greater than 10
