Answer:

26 customers

Step-by-step explanation:

Represent customers entering as y and those buying hot dogs as x

y = 4x + 9

y = 3x + 35

Required

Determine the number of people buying hotdogs (x)

Substitute 4x + 9 for y in the second equation

4x + 9 = 3x + 35

Collect Like Terms

4x - 3x = 35 - 9

x = 26

Anna007 [38]

Answer:

a) 83%

b) 0.892

percentage that attends class on friday = 74%

percentage that pass because they attend class on friday = 88%

percentage that pass but did not go to school on friday = 20%

a) percentage of students expected to pass the course

  = (74% x 88%) +(88% x 20%)

   = 0.6512 + 0.176

   = 0.8272

   = 83%

b) If a person passes the course, what is the probability that he/she attended classes on Fridays

        = 74% divided by 83%

        = 0.892
