Answer:

11y = 1155

$5 raffle tickets: 105

x = 4(105) - 2

$1.5 raffle tickets: 418

Step-by-step explanation:

1.5x + 5y = 1152    

x = 4y – 2

1.5(4y - 2) + 5y = 1152

6y - 3 + 5y = 1152

11y = 1155

y = 105

x = 4(105) - 2

x = 418

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

1.5x + 5y = 1152    

x = 4y – 2

We can substitute the second equation into the first equation

Which one-variable linear equation can be formed using the substitution method?

1.5(4y-2) +5y = 1152  

Distribute

6y -3 +5y = 1152

Combine like terms

11y-3 = 1152

Add 3 to each side

11y-3+3 = 1152+3

11y = 1155

Divide each side by 11

11y/11 = 1155/11

y = 105

How many $5 raffle tickets were sold?

105 5 dollar tickets were sold

Now we need to find the number of 1.50 tickets

Which equation can be used to determine how many $1.50 raffle tickets were sold?

x = 4y – 2

x = 4(105) -2

   =420-2

   = 418

How many $1.50 raffle tickets were sold?

418    $1.50 tickets were sold

For a perfectly symmetrical distribution with a mean of 50, what is the value of the median?
Lelechka [254]

In a set of data, if the data is perfectly symmetrical then the mean is equal to the median. In this case, the median would be 50.

For example, consider the data set: {25, 50, 75}

The mean is going to be 50 because \frac{25+50+75}{3} = 50

The median is also 50 because that is the middle number when ordered numerically.

Hope this helped! Let me know if you have any more questions.

Answer:

 (b)

Step-by-step explanation:

A suitable calculator or spreadsheet can find the matrix product for you. Here, the answer choices differ in their upper left term, so we can determine the correct choice by finding the value of that term. It is the dot product of the first row of B and the first column of A.

  (5)(3) +(7)(3) +(3)(2) = 15 +21 +6 = 42

This matches choice B.

Find the diameter of a cone that has a volume of 56.52 cubic inches and a height of 6 inches. Use 3.14 for pi. a. 3 inches. b. 6
sergejj [24]
Volume of cone = (1/3)pi*r²h

56.52 = (1/3)*3.14*r²*6

56.52/(2*3.14) = r²

9 = r²

r² = 9

r = √9

r = 3

Diameter = 2*r = 2*3 = 6 inches.    b.
