These are the equations you need - a+k=total, 12a+6k=15480

Set up two equations: one for the amount of money collected, and one for the number of tickets sold (people who attended).

Let a= adults
Let s= students

Money equation:
15480=12a+6s

Ticket equation:
1500=a+s

Now just solve the system of equations for s:
15480-12a=6s\\ \frac{15480}{6} - \frac{12a}{6} =s\\ 2580-2a=s\\ 1500=a+s\\ 1500=a+(2580-2a)\\ 1500=-a+2580\\ 1500-2580=-a\\ -1080=-a\\ 1080=a\\ \\ 1500=a+s\\ 1500=1080+s 420=s

420 Students attended

Use the counting techniques from the last chapter. A bag contains three red marbles, four green ones, one fluorescent pink one,
sergiy2304 [10]

Answer:

The probability that she gets all the red ones, given that she gets the fluorescent pink one, is P=0.0035 or 0.35%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Susan grabs four marbles at random.

We have to calculate the probabilities that he picks the 3 red ones, given that she already picked the fluorescent pink.

If it is given that the fluorescent pink is already picked, we are left with three red marbles, four green ones, two yellow ones, and four orange ones. A total of 13 marbles.

The probability that the second marble is red is 3 in 13.

The probability that the third marble is also red is 2 (the red marbles that are left) in 12 (the total amount of marbles left), as there is a picking without replacement.

The probability that the fourth marble is 1 in 11.

Then, the probability that the 3 red marbles are picked, is:

P=P_1\cdot P_2\cdot P_3=\dfrac{3}{13}\cdot \dfrac{2}{12}\cdot \dfrac{1}{11}=\dfrac{6}{1716}=0.0035

A group of students are meeting in the cafeteria. 70 students have already arrived. This is 35% of the group. How many are in th
sesenic [268]
There are 200 students in the group.

To find this, you divide 70 by 0.35 (35%). This will give you 200. To check this, multiply 200 by 0.35 and you will get 70. Thus making 200 the answer.

I hope this helps!
