Assume independence because there are probably a lot of widgets. 1/100 x 1/100 = 1/10,000
Answer:
450 people paid the discounted fare and 750 people paid the regular fare.
Step-by-step explanation:
let r be regular fares paid and d be discounted fares paid
Total fares = 0.8r + 0.4d = 780
Since 1200 people paid the fares,
r + d = 1200 = Total people
Rearrange this formula:
r = 1200 - d
Substitute r into Total Fares formula
Total fares = 0.8r + 0.4d
780 = 0.8(1200-d) + 0.4d
780 = 960 - 0.8d + 0.4d
780 = 960 - 0.4d
0.4d = 180
d = 450
Sub d=450 into Total people formula
r + d = 1200 = Total people
r + 450 = 1200
r = 1200-450
r = 750
450 people paid the discounted fare and 750 people paid the regular fare.
Answer: y = (3/2)x
m = 3/2 is the slope
(x1,y1) = (0,0) is the point we want the line to go through, aka the origin
Use point slope form, plug in the given values, and convert to slope intercept form
y - y1 = m(x - x1) .... point slope form
y - 0 = (3/2)*(x - 0) .... substitution
y = (3/2)x .... final answer in slope intercept form
