X= number of adult tickets
y=number of child tickets.
we can suggest this system of equations: 
x+y=118                 ⇒x=118-y
7.5x+3y=696

we can solve this system of equations by substitution method:
7.5(118-y)+3y=696
885-7.5y+3y=696
-4.5y=-189
y=-189/-4.5
y=42

x=118-y
x=118-42
x=76

Answer: the number of adult tickets sold was 76.

6. A stoplight at an intersection stays red for 60 second, changes to green for 45
erica [24]

Answer:

0.75 = 75% probability that he will have to wait at a red light for more than 15 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

At each second, the stoplight is equally likely to change, which means that we use the uniform probability distribution to solve this question.

Uniform probability distribution:

Has two bounds, a and b. The probability of finding a value higher than x is given by:

P(X > x) = \frac{b - x}{b - a}

Red for 60 seconds

So when Jamal arrives it can change in any number of seconds between 0 and 60, that is, a = 0, b = 60

Probability that he will have to wait at a red light for more than 15 seconds?

P(X > 15) = \frac{60 - 15}{60 - 0} = \frac{45}{60} = \frac{3}{4} = 0.75

0.75 = 75% probability that he will have to wait at a red light for more than 15 seconds
