133 adult tickets were sold.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Total tickets sold for school play = 399

Let,

x represent the number of children tickets sold.

y represent the number of adult tickets sold.

According to given statement;

x+y=399      Eqn 1

x = 2y           Eqn 2

Putting value of x from Eqn 2 in Eqn 1

2y+y=399\\3y=399

Dividing both sides by 3

\frac{3y}{3}=\frac{399}{3}\\y=133

133 adult tickets were sold.

Answer:

When using this technique, the AOQ:

improves (AOQ becomes a smaller fraction).

Step-by-step explanation:

AOQ simply means Average Outgoing Quality, which improves with inspection.  It is a part of an organization's Acceptance Sampling Plan, usually designed to meet product quality and risk level targets.  The plan draws samples from a population of items.  Then it tests the samples.  It only accepts the entire population if the sample is considered good enough.  It also rejects the population when the sample is poor enough.  In the plan, information about sample size and critical acceptance or rejection numbers are clearly indicated.  Acceptance sampling is common in most business environments because it has been found to be more economical than doing 100% inspection of incoming production input and output.
