Evan uses 1/3 of his tickets to ride the loop-D- loop twice. what is 1/3 of 24 tickets?

1/3 of 24 is 8.
The way I usually find this is by multiplying different numbers by three and seeing if it equals (in this case) 24.

8 x 3 = 24
Because eight goes into twenty-four three times, eight is one-third of twenty-four.

Hope this helps!

Find the points of intersection (if any) of the graphs of the equations. Use a graphing utility to check your results. y = - x +

fredd [130]

Answer:

$x = 1.2$

See Attachment for Graph

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$y = -x + 4$

$y = 4x - 2$

Required

Determine the point of intersection

To do this, we simply equate both expressions of y

i.e.

$-x + 4 = 4x - 2$

Solve for x

$-x - 4x = - 2 - 4$

$-5x = -6$

Divide through by -5

$x = \frac{-6}{-5}$

$x = \frac{6}{5}$

$x = 1.2$

Hence, the point of intersection is 1.2

Given the system of equations, what is the solution?

Elena L [17]

Answer:

{(-34/7, -16/7)}

Step-by-step explanation:

Rearrange values, multiply to solve for x.

(5) 2y = 3x + 10

(-2) 5y = 4x + 8

Solve for x.

10y = 15x + 50 ↓

-10y = -8x -16

Combine and evaluate.

0 = 7x + 34

Subtract 34 from both sides.

7x = -34

Divide both sides by 7.

x = $\frac{-34}{7}$

Plugin x value into either equation to solve for y.

2y = (3 × $\frac{-34}{7}$ ) + 10

2y = $\frac{-102}{7}$ + 10

2y = $\frac{-32}{7}$

y = $\frac{-16}{7}$

elsa,ryan, and jim sent a total of 116 text messgaes during the weekend. ryan sent 4 times as many messages as jim. elsa sent 10

kozerog [31]

The number of messages sent by Elsa, Ryan and Jim are 11 , 84 and 21 respectively.

Explanation

Suppose, the number of messages Jim sent is $x$

As Ryan sent 4 times as many messages as Jim, so the number of messages sent by Ryan $= 4x$

Also, Elsa sent 10 fewer messages than Jim, so the number of messages sent by Elsa $= x-10$

Given that, they sent a total of 116 text messages. So the equation will be.......

$x+4x+(x-10)=116\\ \\ 6x-10=116\\ \\ 6x= 126\\ \\ x= \frac{126}{6}= 21$

So, the number of messages sent by each of them.....

$Jim = 21\\ Ryan = 4*21= 84\\ Elsa= 21-10= 11$

Amanda [17]

Answer:

The probability of making a correct random guess is 0.00053%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Clue is a board game in which you must deduce three details surrounding a murder, and in the original game of Clue, the guilty person can be chosen from 66 people, and there are 66 different possible weapons and 99 possible rooms, and at one point in the game, you have narrowed the possibilities down to 44 people, 55 weapons, and 77 rooms, to determine what is the probability of making a random guess of the guilty person, murder weapon, and location from your narrowed-down choices , and the guess being correct, the following calculation must be performed:

(1 / (44x55x77)) x 100 = X

(1 / 186,340) x 100 = X

0.0005366 = X

Therefore, the probability of making a correct random guess is 0.00053%.
