Let f be the height of the fir trees
Let p be the height of the pine trees
We know from the problem that
f + p = 21 and 4f = 24 + p
rearrange the 2nd equation to get p = 4f - 24 and substitute into the other equation
so...
f + 4f - 24 = 21
5f - 24 = 21
5f = 45
f = 9 - height of the fir tree
substitute back into the 1st equation
9 + p = 21
p = 12 - height of the pine tree
Answer:
There appears to be statistical bias.
Step-by-step explanation:
There is a likelihood of potential bias in the experiment. This is is because the results can be manipulated so that they can be in line with the organization's objectives and of the funders.
Only verified and quantified surveys are able to provide statistically unbiased results.
Answer: the cost of an adult ticket is $9.
The cost of a child's ticket is $13
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the price of one adult ticket.
Let y represent the price of one student ticket.
On the first day of ticket sales, the school sold two adult tickets and three students tickets for a total of $57. It means that
2x + 3y = 57- - - - - - - - - -1
The school took and $70 on the second day by selling two adult tickets and four student tickets. It means that
2x + 4y = 70- - - - - - - - - -2
Subtracting equation 2 from equation 1, it becomes
- y = - 13
y = 13
Substituting y = 13 into equation 1, it becomes
2x + 3 × 13 = 57
2x + 39 = 57
2x = 57 - 39 = 18
x = 18/2
x = 9
The dependent is the one that you score and the independent is the number of the ones you answer correctly.Hope it helps :)
