Answer:

Number of $8 tickets sold  = 210

Number of $10 tickets sold  = 280

Number of $12 tickets sold  = 70

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of ticket sold is 560  tickets .

Total number of ticket sold = 560 tickets

The prices varies as $8, $10 and $12.

The total income from the ticket sold = $5320

Let

number of  $8 ticket sold = a

number of  $10 ticket sold = b

number of  $12 ticket sold = c

a + b = 7c

Therefore,

8a + 10b + 12c = 5320

a + b + c = 560

7c + c = 560

8c = 560

divide both sides by 8

c = 560/8

c = 70

Insert the value of c in the equations below

8a + 10b + 12c = 5320

8a + 10b + 12(70) = 5320

8a + 10b + 840 = 5320

8a + 10b = 5320 - 840

8a + 10b = 4480...........(i)

a + b + c = 560

a + b + 70 = 560

a + b = 560 - 70

a + b = 490...............(ii)

8a + 10b = 4480...........(i)

a + b = 490...............(ii)

a = 490 - b

insert the value of a in equation(i)

8(490 - b) + 10b = 4480

3920 - 8b + 10b = 4480

3920 + 2b = 4480

2b = 4480 - 3920

2b = 560

b = 560/2

b = 280

insert the value of b in equation (ii)

a + b = 490...............(ii)

a + 280 = 490

a = 490 - 280

a = 210

Number of $8 tickets sold  = 210

Number of $10 tickets sold  = 280

Number of $12 tickets sold  = 70

Shalnov [3]

Answer:

P(X>4)=P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}>\frac{4-\mu}{\sigma})=P(Z>\frac{4-4.4}{0.4})=P(z>-1)

And we can find this probability with the complement rule:

P(z>-1)=1-P(z

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".  

Solution to the problem

Let X the random variable that represent the disagreements of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

X \sim N(4.4,0.4)  

Where \mu=4.4 and \sigma=0.4

We are interested on this probability

P(X>4)

And the best way to solve this problem is using the normal standard distribution and the z score given by:

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

If we apply this formula to our probability we got this:

P(X>4)=P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}>\frac{4-\mu}{\sigma})=P(Z>\frac{4-4.4}{0.4})=P(z>-1)

And we can find this probability with the complement rule:

P(z>-1)=1-P(z
