Answer:
Yes
Step-by-step explanation:
1.2 is rational
So what we have to do to solve this problem is to write down those values in 2 equations (one that represents what you sold and the other what your friend sold) compare them and find how much each ticket is worth.
First equation : 11x + 8y = 158
Where x = how much each adult ticket is
and y = how much each student ticket is
The second equation is : 5x + 17y = 152
Using the method of substitution , we can compare each equation side by side:
11x + 8y = 158
5x + 17y = 152
Now we need to set one of the variables of both equations so they are equal:
11(5)x + 8(5) = 158(5)
5(11)x + 17(11)x = 152(11)
55x + 40y = 790
55x + 187y = 1672
Then we subtract the second equation by the first one
55x-55x + 187y - 40y = 1672 - 790
147y = 882
y = 6
The we apply y to one of the equations to discover x :
11x + 8y = 158
11x + 8(6) = 158
11x + 48 = 158
11x = 110
x = 10
So the awnser is :
Each adult ticket (x) is $10
And each student ticket (y) is $8

Answer: 9
Step-by-step explanation:
Based on the information given in the question, the expected number of people who pass will be calculated as:
= Probability of passing the driving test × Number of people tested
= 65% × 15
= 0.65 × 15
= 9.75
Therefore, expected number of people who pass is 9.
5.4 divide by 0.12 equals 45
Step-by-step explanation:
let both unknowns be x and y
x = 5y. ......(1)
x + y = 90. ......(2)
sub eqn (1) into eqn (2)
5y + y = 90
6y = 90
y = 90/6
= 15
sub y = 15 to eqn (1)
x = 5y
x = 5 × 15
× = 75
