There really isn't any distributing done, as the perimeter is the total length of the shape, and since this is a rectangle it has two two equal sides, 7+7=14 and 13+13=26, 14+26=40 inches
Answer: 321 adult tickets and 227 children tickets were sold.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of adult tickets that were sold.
Let y represent the number of children tickets that were sold.
The total number of tickets that the theatre sold is 548. This means that
x + y = 548
Adult tickets sell for $6.50 each, and children's tickets sell for $3.50 each. The total ticket sales was $2881. This means that
6.5x + 3.5y = 2881 - - - - - - - - - - -1
Substituting x = 548 - y into equation 1, it becomes
6.5(548 - y) + 3.5y = 2881
3562 - 6.5y + 3.5y = 2881
- 6.5y + 3.5y = 2881 - 3562
- 3y = - 681
y = - 681/ -3
y = 227
x = 548 - y = 548 - 227
x = 321
Answer:
-$13.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be a random variable of a count of player gain.
- We are told that if the die shows 3, the player wins $45.
- there is a charge of $9 to play the game
If he wins, he gains; 45 - 9 = $36
If he looses, he has a net gain which is a loss = -$9
Thus, the x-values are; (36, -9)
Probability of getting a 3 which is a win is P(X) = 1/6 since there are 6 numbers on the dice and probability of getting any other number is P(X) = 5/6
Thus;
E(X) = Σ(x•P(X)) = (1/6)(36) + (5/6)(-9)
E(X) = (1/6)(36 - (5 × 9))
E(X) = (1/6)(36 - 45)
E(X) = -9/6 = -3/2
E(X) = -3/2
This represents -3/2 of $9 = -(3/2) × 9 = - 27/2 = -$13.5
