Answer: 57 child tickets were sold that day.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of child tickets that were sold.

Let y represent the number of adult tickets that were sold.

on Friday, 155 tickets were sold. It means that

x + y = 155

At the city museum, child admission is $5.70 and adult admission is $9.50. The ticket sales totaled $1255.90 on that day. It means that

5.7x + 9.5y = 1255.9- - - - - - - - - 1

Substituting x = 155 - y into equation 1, it becomes

5.7(155 - y) + 9.5y = 1255.9

883.5 - 5.7y + 9.5y = 1255.9

- 5.7y + 9.5y = 1255.9 - 883.5

3.8y = 372.4

y = 372.4/3.8

y = 98

x = 155 - y = 155 - 98

x = 57

The value of p = 11

y = 5x + p
1 = 5(-2) + p
1 = -10 + p
11 = p

3. From the table below, find Prof. Xin expected value of lateness. (5 points) Lateness P(Lateness) On Time 4/5 1 Hour Late 1/10
wariber [46]

Answer:

The expected value of lateness \frac{7}{20} hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability distribution of lateness is as follows:

  Lateness             P (Lateness)

  On Time                     4/5

1 Hour Late                  1/10

2 Hours Late                1/20

3 Hours Late                1/20​

The formula of expected value of a random variable is:

E(X)=\sum x\cdot P(X=x)

Compute the expected value of lateness as follows:

E(X)=\sum x\cdot P(X=x)

         =(0\times \frac{4}{5})+(1\times \frac{1}{10})+(2\times \frac{1}{20})+(3\times \frac{1}{20})\\\\=0+\frac{1}{10}+\frac{1}{10}+\frac{3}{20}\\\\=\frac{2+2+3}{20}\\\\=\frac{7}{20}

Thus, the expected value of lateness \frac{7}{20} hours.

Blank * 1/4 is equal to 2
Montano1993 [528]

8, that is the same as saying what divided by 4 is 2, and 8 divided by 4 is 2. Thus, 2 is 1/4th of 8.
