Complete Question

A school held several evening activities last month—a music concert, a basketball game, a drama play, and literacy night. The music concert was attended by 250 people. How many people came to each of the other activities?

Attendance at the drama play was 140% of attendance at the concert. How many people came to the drama play?

Answer:

350 people

Step-by-step explanation:

Percentage of people that attended a drama play =

Number of people that attended the drama play/Total number of people at the concert × 100

Attendance at the drama play was 140% of attendance at the concert.

The music concert was attended by 250 people

Let the number of people that came to the drama play = x

Hence:

140% = x/250 × 100

140/100 = x/250

Cross Multiply

140 × 250 = 100 × x

x = 140 × 250/100

x = 350 people

Therefore, the number of people that came to the drama play = 350 people

Answer:

(2,4) is a solution to this system of equations

Step-by-step explanation:

Given system of equation are

$y=2x \hfill (1)$

$y=\frac{-1}{2}x+5\hfill (2)$

To find the solution of the given system of equations

To Check that (2,4) is a solution to this system or not

Solving equations (1) and (2)

From equation (1) and y=2x

Now substitute y=2x is equation (2)

$2x=\frac{-1}{2}x+5$

$\frac{-1}{5}x+5-2x=0$

$5-\frac{x}{2}-2x=0$

$5-\frac{x+4x}{2}=0$

$5-\frac{5x}{2}=0$

$\frac{10-5x}{2}=0$

10-5x=0

-5x=-10

$x=\frac{10}{5}$

Substitute x=2 in equation (1)

y=2x

y=2(2)

Therefore y=4

Therefore the solution is (2,4)

Therefore (2,4) is a solution to the system of equations.

I think it’s b but I’m not sure

laila [671]

No, its D

Just look at the rounds mentioned and subtract the scores from higher round with lower round.

Look at A: round 2 score - round 1 score = -2?
-3 -1 = -4 change, not -2 change so it is wrong

Look at B: round 3 score - round 1 score =-1?
-2-1 =-3 change, not -1 change so it is wrong

Look at C: round 3 score - round 2 score =-1?
-2 -(-3) = 1 change, not -1 change so it is wrong

Look at D: round 3 score - round 1 score =-3?
-2-1 = -3 change, matches with -3 so it is correct.

A test consists of 100 multiple choice questions, each with five possible answers, only one of which is correct. Find the mean a

TEA [102]

Answer: Mean = 20 and standard deviation = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represents the success of getting the correct answer.

Here, the total number of trials(n) = 100

The probability of getting the correct answer, p = 1/5

Thus, the mean of the number of correct answer,

$\mu_x= np$

$\mu_x= 100\times 1/5$

$\mu_x= 20$

Now, the standard deviation, $\sigma_x= \sqrt{n\times p\times (1-p)}$

$\sigma_x= \sqrt{100\times 1/5\times 4/5}$

$\sigma_x= \sqrt{16}$

$\sigma_x= 4$

Thus, First option is correct.
