Answer:

Studying probability and statistics will allow you to see the world from an entirely different perspective, since the subjects will give you the tools to model and analyze situations, which involve uncertainty.

for the opening day of a carnival, 800 admission tickets were sold. The receipts totaled $3775. Tickets for children cost $3 eac
zloy xaker [14]
Total tickets sold  = 800
Total revenue = $3775

Ticket costs:
$3  per child,
$8  per adult,
$5 per senior citizen.

Of those who bought tickets, let
x =  number of children 
y = number of adults
z = senior citizens

Therefore
x + y + z = 800                   (1)
3x + 8y + 5z = 3775           (2)

Twice as many children's tickets were sold as adults. Therefore
x = 2y                                (3)

Substitute (3) into (1) and (2).
2y + y + z = 800, or
3y + z = 800, or
z = 800 - 3y                        (4)
3(2y) + 8y + 5z = 3775, or
14y + 5z = 3775                 (5)

Substtute (4) nto (5).
14y + 5(800 - 3y) = 3775
-y = -225
y = 225
From (4), obtain
z = 800 - 3y = 125
From (3), obtain
x = 2y = 450

Answer:
The number of tickets sold was:
450 children,
225  adults,
125 senior citizens.

Subtract 3/y-2 - 1/y+3
Helen [10]
To subtract fractions, we need a common denominator.

\frac{3}{y-2} - \frac{1}{y+3}

the common denominator will be (y-2)(y+3)

\frac{3(y+3)-1(y-2)}{(y-2)(y+3)}
\frac{3y + 9 - y + 2}{(y-2)(y+3)}
\frac{2y + 11}{(y-2)(y+3)}

The answer above will be the simplified form.
