Answer:

9.94

Step-by-step explanation:

Convert 7% into decimal form, 0.07 because it is 7% of 100. Then multiply 0.07 with 142 to find 7% of 142.

A ​6000-seat theater has tickets for sale at ​$26 and ​$40. How many tickets should be sold at each price for a sellout performa
ss7ja [257]

Answer:

x = number of tickets sold for $26 = 3900 tickets

y = number of tickets sold for $40 = 2100 tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

A ​6000-seat theater has tickets for sale at ​$26 and ​$40. How many tickets should be sold at each price for a sellout performance to generate a total revenue of ​$​185,400?

Let

x = number of tickets sold for $26

y = number of tickets sold for $40

x + y = 6000

x = 6000 - y

$26 × x + $40 × y= $185, 400

26x + 40y = 185400

Substitute

26(6000 - y) + 40y = 185400

156000 - 26y + 40y = 185400

Collect like terms

- 26y + 40y = 185400 - 156000

14y = 29400

y = 29400/14

y = 2100 tickets

x = 6000 - y

x = 6000 - 2100

x = 3900 tickets

Hence

x = number of tickets sold for $26 = 3900 tickets

y = number of tickets sold for $40 = 2100 tickets

An airline has 82% of its flights depart on schedule. It has 65% of its flight depart and arrive on schedule. Find the probabili
victus00 [196]

Answer:

0.79

Step-by-step explanation:

Here,  

Let X be the event that the flights depart on time

Let Y be the event that flights arrive on time

So,  

X∩Y will denote the event that the flights departing on time also arrive on time.

Let P be the probability  

P(X∩Y)=0.65

And

P(X)=0.82

We have to find P((Y│X)

We know that

P((Y│X)=P(X∩Y)/P(X) )

=0.65/0.82

=0.79

So the probability that a flight that departs on schedule also arrives on schedule is: 0.79

Six times a number is greater than 20 more than that number. What are the possible values of that number?
seropon [69]
It would be easier to translate this into mathematical terms first.
Let n = the unknown number

6n <span>> n + 20

Subtracting both sides by n to simplify:
6n - n </span><span>> n + 20 - n
</span>5n <span>> 20
</span><span>
Dividing both sides by 5:
5n/5 </span><span>> 20/5
</span>n <span>> 4
</span><span>
Among the choices, the correct one is the second choice.

Experimental probability is the same as empirical probability and relative frequency.
BlackZzzverrR [31]
If this is a true or false question, then the answer would be true. It is correct that the three terms mentioned are the same. Experimental and empirical probability can be interchanged or even synonymous with one another, as well as relative frequency (or frequency ratio).

Compare 6.23 * 10^14 and 8.912 * 10^12
Masteriza [31]

Answer:

623,000,000,000,000 > 8,912,000,000,000

Step-by-step explanation:

8.912·10^12

The exponent is 12, making it 10 to the power of 12. As the exponent is positive, the solution is a number greater than the origin or base number. To find our answer, we move the decimal to the right 12 time(s):

8.912 -> 8,912,000,000,000

6.23·10^14

The exponent is 14, making it 10 to the power of 14. As the exponent is positive, the solution is a number greater than the origin or base number. To find our answer, we move the decimal to the right 14 time(s):

6.23 -> 623,000,000,000,000
