A is aldult tickets
b is child tickets

b = 2/3 a

7a + 12b = 90
7a + 12 x 2/3 a = 90
7a + 8a = 90
15a = 90
a = 6; b = 4

Triangle WXY, with a vertex X at (3, 0), is rotated clockwise 270° about the origin. Which of the following rotations is equival

sergey [27]

What are the answer options?

A rotation of 270 would be equal to 630, 990, etc. Adding 360 degrees would result in the same rotation.

A rotation of 90 degrees counter-clockwise would also result in the same rotation, as would 90 plus any multiple of 360 if rotated counter-clockwise.

Answer:

The expected number of keys she will try before she opens the door is 4.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

A woman has eight keys on a key ring, one of which fits the door she wants to unlock.

Each of them is equally as likely to be the one to work, which means that this situation is represented by an uniform distribution with lower bound $a = 1$ and upper bound $b = 8$ .

Find the expected number of keys she will try before she opens the door.

The expected value of the uniform distribution is given by:

$E = \frac{a + b}{2}$

Considering $a = 1, b = 8$ , as is the case in this exercise:

$E = \frac{1 + 8}{2} = 4.5$

The expected number of keys she will try before she opens the door is 4.5.

When the price is $ 40 per radio, a producer will supply 90 radios each month for sale. For each $4 increase in price the produc

SVEN [57.7K]

Price for a radio = $ 40 for supply 90 radios in a month.

Ratio of increase in price to the number of radios supplies in a month 4:8 that is 1:2.

New unit price given = $76.

Difference in unit price given in starting and New unit price = 76-40=$36

So, increase in unit price = $36.

Let us assume number of supplied increased = x radios for increase in unit price $36.

So, we can setup a perportion as,

1/2 = 36/x.

On cross multiplication, we get

1*x = 2*36

x= 72.

So, 72 is the increased number of radios in 90 radios.

That is 72+90 = 162 radios each month.

Therefore, 162 radios are supplied if their per unit price is $76.
