Answer:

175 adults

360 senior citizens

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of senior citizens

There were a total of 535 people, so

(535-x)=total number of adults

Total receipts=$8,355

Adult payments+Senior payments=$8,355

21(535-x)+13x=$8,355

$11,235-21x+13x=$8,355

$11,235-8x=$8,355

-8x=$-2,880

x=360 senior citizens

Number of adults=535-360=175 adults

To check, just substitute...

21(175)+13(360)

3,675+4,680

Which equals.....

$8,355

The area of the right triangle = \frac{1}{2}bh

b = base = SV = 12.3
h = hight = HL = 24.6
A = area
\frac{1}{2}bh = A
\frac{1}{2}(12.3)(24.6) = 151.29

The amount of time it takes Renee to go grocery shopping is continuous and uniformly distributed between 18.5 minutes and 40.5 m
balandron [24]

Answer:

47.73% probability that it takes Renee at most 29 minutes to go grocery shopping

Step-by-step explanation:

An uniform probability is a case of probability in which each outcome is equally as likely.

For this situation, we have a lower limit of the distribution that we call a and an upper limit that we call b.

The probability that we find a value X lower than x is given by the following formula.

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

Uniformly distributed between 18.5 minutes and 40.5 minutes.

This means that a = 18.5, b = 40.5

What is the probability that it takes Renee at most 29 minutes to go grocery shopping

P(X \leq 29) = \frac{29 - 18.5}{40.5 - 18.5} = 0.4773

47.73% probability that it takes Renee at most 29 minutes to go grocery shopping
