A movie theater charges $9.50 for adults and $4.50 for children. For a recent showing of a movie, the theater sold 33 tickets an

choli [55]

Answer:

The number of children's tickets sold was 31 and the number of adult tickets sold was 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ---> the number of children's tickets sold

y ---> the number of adult tickets sold

we know that

the theater sold 33 tickets

so

$x+y=33$ -----> equation A

the theater made a total of $158.50

so

$4.50x+9.50y=158.50$ ----> equation B

Solve the system by graphing

Remember that the solution of the system is the intersection point both graphs

using a graphing tool

The solution is the point (31,2)

see the attached figure

therefore

The number of children's tickets sold was 31 and the number of adult tickets sold was 2

A programmer wants to display how the shape of a rectangle with a fixed perimeter of 300 inches can be changed by varying the re

stiv31 [10]

If the rectangle has a fixed width of 300, it means that

$2(l+w)=300 \iff l+w=150 \iff w=150-l$

where $w$ and $l$ are width and length, respetively.

So given the length $l$ , the are would be

$l\times w = l\times (150-l)=-l^2+150l$

CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION

1.1 The Basics

Definition: statistics

Statistics is the science of collecting, organizing, interpreting, and learning from data.

COURSE GOAL:

Learn how to use statistical methods to translate data into knowledge so that we can investigate

questions in an objective manner. Here are some examples of questions we’ll have the tools to

answer before the end of the semester:

1. How can we estimate the percentage of American citizens who would vote for Hillary Clinton

if the presidential election were held today? How certain are we about our estimate?

2. What is the relationship between the amount of time spent studying and the score received

on an exam?

3. Is there an association between smoking and divorce? If so, does that mean smoking causes

divorce?

THREE ASPECTS OF STATISTICS

1. Design: Planning how to obtain data to answer the question of interest.

2. Description: Summarizing the data that are obtained.

3. Inference: Using sample data to learn about the population: make decisions and

predictions based on the data for answeri

What is the product of the 2 solutions of the equation x^2+3x-21=0

Advocard [28]

X²+3x-21=0

1) we solve this square equation:
x=[-3⁺₋√(9+84)] / 2=(-3⁺₋√93)/2
We have two solutions:
x₁=(-3-√93)/2
x₂=(-3+√93)/2

2) we compute the product of the 2 solutions found.
[(-3-√93)/2][(-3+√93)/2] =(-3-√93)(-3+√93) / 4=
=(9-93)/4=-84/4=-21

Answer: the product of the 2 solutions of this equation is -21
