Answer:

34

Step-by-step explanation:

$1.25 = 125 cents.

$42 = 4200 cents

Tickets sold at 75 cents = x

Tickets sold at 125 cents = y

x + y = 40

75x + 125y = 4200

Multiply the first equation by 75

75x + 75y = 3000

75x + 125y = 4200

Subtract the the second equation from the first.

75x + 75y = 3000

- 75x + 125y = 4200

-------------------------------

0 - 150y = - 1200

Divide both sides by - 150

-150y/-150 = -1200/-150

y = 8

Substitute y = 8 into the first equation

x + y = 42

x + 8 = 42

x = 42 - 8

x = 34

34 tickets were sold for 75 cents

8 tickets were sold for $1.25

Adult men have heights with a mean of 69. 0 inches and a standard deviation of 2. 8 inches. find the z-score of a man who is 71.
Anarel [89]

The value of the z score is 1.03.

According to the statement

we have given that the value of mean and standard deviation and we have to find the value of the z score.

So, For this purpose we know that the

Z-score indicates how much a given value differs from the standard deviation. The Z-score, or standard score, is the number of standard deviations a given data point lies above or below mean.

And the given values are:

mean value = 69 inches

s.d value = 2.8 inches

And the value of x is 71.9 inches.

So, The Z score is

z = x - mean / standard deviation

substitute the values in it then

z = 71.9 - 69 / 2.8

then

z = 2.9 /2.8

z  = 1.03

So, The value of the z score is 1.03.

Solve: -4 < -2x < 10
Minchanka [31]
<h3>Answer:   -5 < x < 2</h3>

Explanation:

The expression -2x means -2 times x. To undo this, we divide all parts of the inequality by -2. Dividing by a negative number will flip the inequality sign. We go from "less than" to "greater than"

-4 < -2x < 10

-4/(-2) > x > 10/(-2) .... inequality signs flip

2 > x > -5

-5 < x < 2

This unknown number x is between -5 and 2. It cannot equal -5. It cannot equal 2.
