We assume all money is spent on new lighting. Since they currently have $160 and need $400 we can subtract what they currently have from what they need.
$400-$160 = $240
Since we know the price of the ticket and now know they need $240 we can divide our $240 with the price of each ticket ($3)
$240/$3 = 80
So the drama club has to sell 80 more tickets in order to afford new lighting
Answer:
Mean absolute deviation is the average of the absolute deviations from the mean. It is a measure of variability, which gives us an idea about the spread of data points from mean. Therefore, the small MAD means the data points are less deviated from mean. And the large MAD means the data points are more deviated from mean.
Hence, smaller the MAD lesser the variation in data.
I would love to use substitution (It is simplier that way I guess)
solve your system of equations.
x+2y=−1;x−y=5
Solve x+2y=−1 for x:
x+2y+−2y=−1+−2y(Add -2y to both sides)
x=−2y−1
Substitute (−2y−1) for x in x−y=5:
x−y=5
−2y−1−y=5
−3y−1=5(Simplify both sides of the equation)
−3y−1+1=5+1(Add 1 to both sides)
−3y=6
−3y/−3 = 6/−3(Divide both sides by -3)
y=−2
Substitute (−2) for y in x=−2y−1:
x=−2y−1
x=(−2)(−2)−1
x=3(Simplify both sides of the equation)
So the answer is (x = 3 and y = -2)
6/25-63/125
Make the denominator the same:
= 30/125 - 63/125
Subtract:
= -33/125
Answer: -33/125
