Answer:the cost of one child's ticket is $6

the cost of one adult ticket is $9

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the cost of one child's ticket

Let y represent the cost of one adult ticket.

Tickets for a minor league baseball game for an adult and two children cost a total of $21. This means that

2x + y = 21 - - - - - - - - - - 1

The adult ticket is three dollars more than a child's ticket. This means that

y = x + 3

Substituting y = x + 3 into equation 1, it becomes

2x + x + 3 = 21

3x + 3 = 21

3x = 21 - 3 = 18

x = 18/3 = 6

y = x + 3 = 6 + 3

y = 9

Nimfa-mama [501]

Let's split the problem in non-intersecting subsets: we have 87 good wood racquets, 13 defective wood rackets, 90 good graphite racquets, 10 defective graphite rackets.


The probability that the racket is wood or defective covers the following subsets: good wood, defective wood and defective graphite, which have, respectively, 87, 13 and 10 elements.


Since the total is 200 elements, the probability is


\frac{87+13+10}{200} = \frac{110}{200} = 0.55

Andrea bought 1 2/5 pounds of avocados at $4.20 per pound and ​ 2 1/
guapka [62]

Answer:

$14.43¢

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given; 1\frac{2}{5} pounds, 1 pound = $4.20 and 2\frac{1}{4} pounds,1 pound = $3.80 that Andrea bought.

Now we need to find her total cost. To do that, we must first find the cost of the avocados. To do so, let us set up a graph. But before that is done, convert 1\frac{2}{5} to a decimal. It is 1.4. Now we can set up a graph.

<u>Avocados</u>

\frac{4.2}{1}=\frac{x}{1.4}

Switch sides

\frac{x}{1.4}=\frac{4.2}{1}

Apply rule: \frac{a}{1}=a

\frac{x}{1.4}=4.2

Multiply both sides by 1.4

\frac{1.4x}{1.4}=4.2\cdot \:1.4

Simplify

x=5.88

So, her cost for avocados is $5.88¢

Now we must first find the cost of the avocados. To do so, let us set up a graph. But before that is done, convert 2\frac{1}{4} to a decimal. It is 2.25. Now we can set up a graph.

<u>Asparagus</u>

\frac{3.8}{1}=\frac{x}{2.25}

Switch sides

\frac{x}{2.25}=\frac{3.8}{1}

Apply rule : \frac{a}{1}=a

\frac{x}{2.25}=3.8

Multiply both sides by 2.25

\frac{2.25x}{2.25}=3.8\cdot \:2.25

Simplify

x=8.55

So, her cost for asparagus is $8.55¢

<u>Total cost</u>

Now that we have found out how much both of the fruits Andrea bought costs, we need to sum it up (meaning add it) to find the total cost:

$5.88¢ + 8.55¢ =

5.88 + 8.55 = 14.43

Therefore, Andrea's total cost of the fruits is $14.43¢
