Given:

Admission to the local movie theater is $3 for each child and $7 for each adult.

A group of 12 people pay $64 admission.

To find:

The number of children in a group.

Solution:

Let the number of children be x and number of adults be y.

According to the question,

Total persons : x+y=12          ...(i)

Total cost : 3x+7y=64     ...(ii)

Multiply equation (i) by 7 and subtract the result from (ii).

3x+7y-7(x+y)=64-7(12)

3x+7y-7x-7y=64-84

-4x=-20

Divide both sides by -4.

x=5

Therefore, the number of children is 5.

There are 130 people in a sport centre.
Mashcka [7]

Answer:

<h2>7/130</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Using set notation to answer the question. let:

n(U) be the total people in a sport centre =130

n(G) be number of people that use the gym.  = 76

n(P) be number of people that use the swimming pool. = 60

n(T) be number of people that use the track = 32

n(G∩P) be number of people that uses the gym and the pool = 23

n(P∩T) be number of people that uses the  pool and the track = 8

n(G∩T) be number of people that uses the gym and the track = 320

n(G∩P∩T) be number of people that uses all three facilities = 6

Using the relationship below;

n(U)= n(GUPUT)+n(GUPUT)'

where n(GUPUT)' is the number of people that doesn't use any facility.

Before we can get that, we need to know n(GUPUT) using the formula;

n(GUPUT) = n(G) + n(P)+n(T)-n(G∩P)-n(P∩T)-n(G∩T)+n(G∩P∩T)

n(GUPUT) = 76+60+32-23-8-20+6

n(GUPUT) = 123

n(GUPUT)' = n(U)- n(GUPUT)

n(GUPUT)' = 130 - 123

n(GUPUT)' = 7

This means that 7 person doesn't use any facility.

Probability that a person selected at random doesn't use any facility = n(GUPUT)' /n(U) = 7/130
