Answer:

108 student tickets, and 176 adult tickets  were sold

Step-by-step explanation:

Adult ticket $8  Call the number of adult tickets sold "a"

Student ticket $5  Call the number of student tickets sold "s"

Since we are talking about TWO consecutive days of sold out seats, the total number of seats sold were 2* 142 = 284

Then we create two different equations with the information given:

a + s = 284

8 * a + 5 * s = 1948

we can solve for s in the first equation as follows: s = 284 - a

and use it in the second equation

8 a + 5 (284 - a) = 1948

8 a + 1420 - 5 a = 1948

combining

3 a = 528

a = 528/3

a = 176

we find the number of student tickets using this answer in the substitution equation we used:

s - 284 - 176 = 108

Therefore 108 student tickets, and 176 adult tickets were sold.

Which of the following conditions must be met in order to make a statistical inference about a population based on a sample
klasskru [66]

Answer:

For this case if we want to conclude that  the sample does not come from a normally distributed population we need to satisfy the condition that the sample size would be large enough in order to use the central limit theoream and approximate the sample mean with the following distribution:

\bar X \sim (\mu, \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}})

For this case the condition required in order to consider a sample size large is that n>30, then the best solution would be:

n>= 30

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case if we want to conclude that  the sample does not come from a normally distributed population we need to satisfy the condition that the sample size would be large enough in order to use the central limit theoream and approximate the sample mean with the following distribution:
