S and P are mutually exclusive events.
P ( S ) = 20% = 0.20
P ( T ) = 22 % = 0.22
The probability of mutually exclusive events:
P ( S or T ) = P ( S ) + P ( T )
P ( S or T ) = 0.20 +0.22 = 0.42
Answer: The probability of ( S or T ) is 0.42 or 42 %.
Answer:
100 of the 20$ tickets, and 60 of the 35$ tickets
Step-by-step explanation:
20*x + 35*y = 4100
x + y = 160
That means x = 160 - y, put this into the first equation
20(160 - y) + 35y = 4100
3200 - 20y + 35y = 4100
15y + 3200 = 4100
15y = 900
y = 60
Put y = 60 into the second equation and
x + 60 = 160
x = 100
y = 60, x = 100
Double check that this works for both equations to make sure its right
20 * 100 + 35 * 60= 4100
2000 + 2100 = 4100 /Correct
100 + 60 = 160 /Correct
