Answer:

70 adults

42 children

Step-by-step explanation:

A + C = 112

A = 112 - C

2.25A + 1.75C = 231

2.25(112 - C) + 1.75C = 231

252 - 2.25C + 1.75C = 231

21 = 0.5C

C = 42

A = 112 - C

A = 112 - 42

A = 70

Answer:

42 child and 70 adult

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a = number of adult tickets

c = number of child tickets

a+c = 112

2.25a + 1.75c = 231

Solve the first equation for a

a = 112-c

Substitute this into the second equation

2.25(112-c) + 1.75c = 231

Distribute

252 - 2.25c +1.75c = 231

Combine like terms

252 -.5c = 231

Subtract 252 from each side

252-252 -.5c = 231-252

-.5c = -21

Divide each side by -.5

-.5c/-.5 = -21/ -.5

c = 42

Now can find a

a = 112-c

a = 112-42

a = 70

a large school surveys 100 people by taking random samples of 10 teachers and 90 students. what type of sample is this
bearhunter [10]

Answer:

Stratified Sampling

Step-by-step explanation:

Stratified sampling involves dividing the population into subpopulations that may differ in important ways. It allows you draw more precise conclusions by ensuring that every subgroup is properly represented in the sample.

To use this sampling method, you divide the population into subgroups (called strata) based on the relevant characteristic (e.g. gender, age range, income bracket, job role).

Based on the overall proportions of the population, you calculate how many people should be sampled from each subgroup. Then you use random or systematic sampling to select a sample from each subgroup.

I hope this helped!
