Answer:

x = 144 children

y = 160 adults

Step-by-step explanation:

We have parameters already defined. Number of children that entered is x while number of admitted adults is y.

Since the total number of people admitted was 304, this means:

x + y = 304

Total fees for that day was 856

Mathematically:

1.5x + 4y = 856

From the first equation, we can say y = 304 - x

We then substitute this into the second equation:

1.5x + 4(304 - x) = 856

1.5x + 1216 - 4x = 856

1216-856 = 4x-1.5x

2.5x = 360

x = 360/2.5 = 144

Since y = 304 - 144

y = 160

The number of children admitted was 144 and the number of adult is 160

Greg has four different colored cards in a box. Yellow, red, blue, and green. He randomly selects one card, records the color, a
Veronika [31]

Answer:

He should expect to select 75 yellow cards.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since there is replacement, for each trial, we have:

1 yellow card

1 red card

1 blue card

1 green card.

If Greg does this 300 times, how many yellow cards should he expect to select?

Each trial, there are 4 cards, one of which is yellow. So 1/4 = 0.25 probability of selecting a yellow card.

Over 300 trials

0.25*300 = 75

He should expect to select 75 yellow cards.
