Answer : Sarah bought 4 first class tickets and 3 coach tickets.

Explanation :

We will call F the number of first class tickets and C the number of coach tickets.

Sarah had to buy a total of 7 tickets for 7 people.

Then F + C = 7 (Equation 1)

She used her total budget = $5,620

Then F*$1,150 + C*$340 = $5,620 (Equation 2)

F + C = 7

F = 7 - C

Now we can replace the value F in the equation  2

(7 - C)*$1,150 + C*$340 = $5,620

7*$1,150 - C*$1,150 + C*$340 = $5,620

$8,050 - C*$810 = $5,620

$8,050 - $5,620 = C*$810

$2,430 = C*$810

C = $2,430/$810 = 3 => number of coach tickets

F = 7 - C = 7 - 3 = 4 => number of first class tickets

Answer : Sarah bought 4 first class tickets and 3 coach tickets.

Verification

Replacing these values in equation 2

4*$1,150 + 3*$340 = $4,600 + $1,020 = $5620 => total budget

There are black, blue, and white marbles in a bag. The probability of choosing a black marble is 0.36. The probability of choosi
Gala2k [10]

Answer: c) 0.75

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The probability of choosing a black marble is P(Black)= 0.36.

The probability of choosing a black and then a white marble is P( Black and white) = 0.27.

Then by conditional probability ,

The probability of the second marble being white if the first marble chosen is black = P(\text{white }|\text{Black})=\dfrac{\text{P( Black and white)}}{\text{P(Black}}

=\dfrac{0.27}{0.36}=\dfrac{27}{36}=0.75

Therefore , the probability of the second marble being white if the first marble chosen is black = 0.75

Hello again!

Answer is 60%

————————

so, for this one you first figure out how many study French.

2/9 of 270 is 60 (simple method: 1/9 is 270 divided by 9, which is 30. So 2/9 is 1/9 multiplied by 2, which is 60).
60 are doing French.

Then use this in the ratio of French to Spanish (3:7) and you have 3 and 60 on the same side. You have to multiply 3 by 20 to get to 60 (or divide 60 by 20 to get 3).
So the number you use to do the same to the other side of the ratio is 20.

7 multiplied by 20 (or 7 multiplied by 10, then multiply that by 2) to get 140.
140 are doing Spanish.

Then take the French and Spanish from the big total and you get 270-140-60=70
70 are doing German.

Of these 70, 42 are boys. 70-42 gives 28 girls. 42/70 is the fraction of boys doing German. This is the same as 6/10 and to get a percentage you multiply the fraction by 10 so that the bottom of it is out of 100 (so that’s 60/100).

And 60/100 is the same as 60%.

So your answer is 60%
