Answer:

15

Step-by-step explanation:

40=8(x - 10)

Distributive property

40 = 8x - 80

Add 80 on both side

120 = 8x

Divide both sides by 8

120/8 = 15

x = 15

Answer:

Adult: 50 tickets

Child: 34 tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a be the amount of adult tickets

Let c be the amount of child tickets

Equation:

a + c = 84

14a + 9c = 1,006

Step 1: Multiply a + c = 84 with -9, to canceled c.

-9 (a + c = 84)    →  -9a - 9c = -756

14a + 9c = 1006 → 14a + 9c = 1006

Step 2: Combined the 2 equation together, and solved it.

-9a - 9c = -756

<u>14a + 9c = 1006</u>

       <u> 5a</u> = <u>250</u>

        5        5

           a = 50

Step 3: Plug 50 into the one of the equation, and solved it.

a + c = 84 → 50 + c = 84

                  <u>-50         -50</u>

                            c = 34

Answer: Adult tickets (a) = 50 and Child tickets (c) = 34

To check the answer plug the two number into the equation ( Make sure to add 50 for a and 34 for c).

A bag contains 5 white, 3 black, and 2 green balls. Balls are picked at random.
Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

look down there

Step-by-step explanation:

First ball:

Probability of drawing a white ball is 5/8

Probability of drawing a black ball is 3/8

Second ball:

This depends on the first ball drawn, lets say you drew a white ball initially, 4 white balls are left out of 7 balls in total. The probability of a white ball in the second pick is 4/7.

Total probability of drawing two white balls is 5/8*4/7 (since they are independent events).

If you picked a black ball initially, picking another black ball would have a probability of 2/7, on similar grounds , total prob for 2 blacks would be 3/8*2/7.

The probability that you pick 2 balls of same color is (5/14 + 3/28) = 13/28. (Since they are mutually exclusive events)
