Answer:
- P(Yellow)=0.25
- P(Not Red)=0.65
Step-by-step explanation:
P(Red)=0.35
P(Green)=0.4
(a)Since there are three colours inside the bag
P(Red)+P(Green)+P(Yellow)=1
0.35+0.4+P(Yellow)=1
P(Yellow)=1-(0.35+0.4)
P(Yellow)=0.25
(b) In probability, the sum of an event and its complement is 1.
Therefore:
P(Red)+P(Not Red)=1
0.35+P(Not Red)=1
P(Not Red)=1-0.35
P(Not Red)=0.65
Hello!
For a:
How I would do this, is I would first say if all 46 animals (heads) were chickens, how many legs would there be? Each chicken has 2 legs, so 46 * 2 = 92. The total amount of legs is 96 as stated in the question, so if all of the animals were chickens, the farmer would be 4 legs short.
Now to add rabbits into the equation. Rabbits have 4 legs, and chickens have 2. You want to find the difference between the two, because as you add rabbits to the animals the farmer has, then you have to take away chickens at the same time. 4-2 = 2, so for each rabbit you replace, you add 2 legs.
Since the farmer is 4 legs short with all chickens, then you just divide that 4 by the 2 legs you add by replacing a chicken with a rabbit.
4 / 2 = 2 rabbits
So that means there are 2 rabbits. Since there are 46 heads in total, if 2 are rabbits, that means there are 44 chickens.
So there are 44 chickens and 2 rabbits.
b)
You can follow the same steps: I'm assuming all are child tickets for now:
3.05 * 100 = $305
And now you find how much money short you are.
498.6 - 305 = 193.6
Next, you find the difference in the ticket costs.
5.25 - 3.05 = 2.20
And you divide to find the number of adult tickets.
193.6 / 2.2 = 88
Since 100 tickets were sold, and 88 adult tickets were sold, that means 12 child tickets were sold.
Answer:
1 hour each 30 minutes so the answer is 30 minutes
Answer:
- 321 adult tickets
- 227 child tickets
Step-by-step explanation:
This sort of problem is easily solved by defining a variable to be the quantity of the higher-value contributor. Here, we can let x represent the number of adult tickets. Then total revenue is ...
6.50x +3.50(548-x) = 2881
3x +1918 = 2881 . . . . . . . . . . . . eliminate parentheses, collect terms
3x = 963 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 1918
x = 321 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 3
548-x = 548 -321 = 227 . . . . . .number of child tickets
321 adult tickets and 227 child tickets were sold.
