Answer:

The Answer is that Senior Citizen Tickets cost: $4 and Child tickets cost: $7.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let s = the cost of senior citizen tickets

Let c = the cost of child tickets

The number of tickets sold for each type added together equals the sales for each day. Equations below:

Day 1

3s + 9c = $75

Solve for s:

3s = 75 - 9c

s = 25 - 3c

Day 2

8s + 5c = $67

By substitution:

8(25 - 3c) + 5c = 67

200 - 24c + 5c = 67

-19c = -133

c = -133 / -19 = $7 cost for child tickets.

Solve for s:

s = 25 - 3c

s = 25 - 3(7)

s = 25 - 21 = $4 cost for senior citizen tickets.

Proofs:

Day 1

3s + 9c = $75

3(4) + 9(7) = 75

12 + 63 = 75

75 = 75

Day 2

8s + 5c = $67

8(4) + 5(7) = 67

32 + 35 = 67

67 = 67

This year the CDC reported that 30% of adults received their flu shot. Of those adults who received their flu shot,

Vlad [161]

Using conditional probability, it is found that there is a 0.1165 = 11.65% probability that a person with the flu is a person who received a flu shot.

Conditional Probability

$P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)}$

In which

P(B|A) is the probability of event B happening, given that A happened.

$P(A \cap B)$ is the probability of both A and B happening.

P(A) is the probability of A happening.

In this problem:

Event A: Person has the flu.

Event B: Person got the flu shot.

The percentages associated with getting the flu are:

20% of 30%(got the shot).

65% of 70%(did not get the shot).

Hence:

$P(A) = 0.2(0.3) + 0.65(0.7) = 0.515$

The probability of both having the flu and getting the shot is:

$P(A \cap B) = 0.2(0.3) = 0.06$

Hence, the conditional probability is:

$P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)} = \frac{0.06}{0.515} = 0.1165$

0.1165 = 11.65% probability that a person with the flu is a person who received a flu shot.

Which of these is an example of multi-stage sampling?

zlopas [31]

Answer:

The answer is D.) Choosing New York as a sample, then selecting a sample of zip codes within New York, then sampling the names of people living in those zip codes.

Explanation:

When you use multistage sampling, you take a sample from a population by breaking it down into smaller and smaller groupings (units) at each stage. It's frequently used in nationwide surveys to collect data from a big, geographically dispersed group of people. I hope I helped! ^-^
