Using x as the number of adult tickets sold
If 3x as many student tickets were sold as adults 
--> the number of student tickets is 3x

If the total tickets is 572 and made up of 3x and x

This equation represents the relation ship
Total = 572
number of adult tickets + number of student tickets = 572
x + 3x = 572

When solving for x, we will find the number of adult tickets
x+3x =572
4x=572
x= 572/4
x= 143

143 adult tickets were sold

In the Ardmore Hotel, 20 percent of the guests (the historical percentage) pay by American Express credit card. (a) What is the
xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

(a) The expected number of guests until the next one pays by American Express credit card is 4.

(b) The probability that the first guest to use an American Express is within the first 10 to checkout is 0.0215.

Step-by-step explanation:

The random variable <em>X</em> can be defined as the number of guests until the next one pays by American Express credit card

The probability that a guest paying by American Express credit card is, <em>p</em> = 0.20.

The random variable <em>X</em> follows a Geometric distribution since it is defined as the number of trials before the first success.

The probability mass function of <em>X</em> is:

P(X=x)=(1-p)^{x}p;\ x=0,1,2,3...,\ 0

(a)

The expected value of a Geometric distribution is:

E(X)=\frac{1-p}{p}

Compute the expected number of guests until the next one pays by American Express credit card as follows:

E(X)=\frac{1-p}{p}

         =\frac{1-0.20}{0.20}

         =4

Thus, the expected number of guests until the next one pays by American Express credit card is 4.

(b)

Compute the probability that the first guest to use an American Express is within the first 10 to checkout as follows:

P(X=10)=(1-0.20)^{10}\times0.20

                 =0.1073741824\times 0.20\\=0.02147483648\\\approx0.0215

Thus, the probability that the first guest to use an American Express is within the first 10 to checkout is 0.0215.

Calculamos el volumen (V) de un prisma cuadrangular expresado en unidades cúbicas. Respondemos: ¿cómo se calcula?...............
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

a) El procedimiento queda resumido en lo que sigue:

1) Se halla el área de la base del cuadrilátero.

2) Se multiplica el resultado anterior por la longitud del prisma.

b) La expresión para calcular el volumen del prisma (V), en unidades cúbicas, es:

V = w\cdot h \cdot l

Donde:

w - Ancho de la base, en unidades.

h - Altura de la base, en unidades.

l - Longitud del prisma, en unidades.

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Dimensionalmente hablando, la unidad de volumen es igual al cubo de la unidad de longitud. Se explica a continuación los pasos necesarios para el cálculo de prisma cuadrangular:

1) Se halla el área de la base del cuadrilátero.

2) Se multiplica el resultado anterior por la longitud del prisma.

b) En consecuencia, se deriva la expresión para el volumen del prisma:

V = A\cdot l (1)

Donde:

A - Área de la base del prisma, en unidades cuadradas.

l - Longitud del prisma, en unidades.

V = w\cdot h \cdot l (2)

Donde:

w - Ancho de la base, en unidades.

h - Altura de la base, en unidades.

Which BEST explains the expression x( y z + 1 2 )? A) x depends on ( y z + 1 2 ). B) ( y z + 1 2 ) depends on x. C) x and ( y z
Alekssandra [29.7K]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  D)  x and ( y z + 1 2 ) are independent of each other

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming this is not intended to be describing a function named x with an argument of yz+12, the variables in any expression are assumed to be independent of each other, unless additional information is provided showing their dependencies.

Here, there is no such additional information, so we must assume ...

  x and (yz +12) are independent of each other

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

The assumption stated in the answer is intended to ensure we're not concerned with something of the form ...

  g(x)

which is an expression saying 'g' is dependent on 'x'. If we know 'g' is a function name, then g(yz+12) will make 'g' be dependent on (yz+12).

Similarly, if x(a) is intended to mean that x is a function of 'a', then the corresponding x(yz+12) will mean that x is dependent on (yz+12). This would be quite unusual, since letters toward the end of the alphabet are usually used for variable names, while letters in the middle of the alphabet are used for function names.
