Answer:

156 seats were sold at the store and 244 at the gallery

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the amount of stalls be x

Let the price per ticket for gallery be y

If 400 seats were sold in total, then;

x+y = 400 ... 1

If concert tickets are sold for $ 8 for the stalls and $ 6 for the gallery with a total of $2888, then;

8x + 6y = 2888 ....2

Solve both equation simultaneously

x+y = 400 ... 1 * 8

8x + 6y = 2888 ....2 .*1

__________

8x+8y = 3200 .

8x + 6y = 2888

Subtract

__________

8y - 6y = 3200 - 2888

2y = 312

y = 312/2

y = 156

Since x = 400 - x

y = 400 - 156

y = 244

hence 156 seats were sold at the store and 244 at the gallery

Answer:

ans=13.59%

Step-by-step explanation:

The 68-95-99.7 rule states that, when X is an observation from a random bell-shaped (normally distributed) value with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , we have these following probabilities

$Pr(\mu - \sigma \leq X \leq \mu + \sigma) = 0.6827$

$Pr(\mu - 2\sigma \leq X \leq \mu + 2\sigma) = 0.9545$

$Pr(\mu - 3\sigma \leq X \leq \mu + 3\sigma) = 0.9973$

In our problem, we have that:

The distribution of the number of months in service for the fleet of cars is bell-shaped and has a mean of 53 months and a standard deviation of 11 months

So $\mu = 53, \sigma = 11$

So:

$Pr(53-11 \leq X \leq 53+11) = 0.6827$

$Pr(53 - 22 \leq X \leq 53 + 22) = 0.9545$

$Pr(53 - 33 \leq X \leq 53 + 33) = 0.9973$

-----------

$Pr(42 \leq X \leq 64) = 0.6827$

$Pr(31 \leq X \leq 75) = 0.9545$

$Pr(20 \leq X \leq 86) = 0.9973$

-----

What is the approximate percentage of cars that remain in service between 64 and 75 months?

Between 64 and 75 minutes is between one and two standard deviations above the mean.

We have $Pr(31 \leq X \leq 75) = 0.9545 = 0.9545$ subtracted by $Pr(42 \leq X \leq 64) = 0.6827$ is the percentage of cars that remain in service between one and two standard deviation, both above and below the mean.

To find just the percentage above the mean, we divide this value by 2

So:

$P = {0.9545 - 0.6827}{2} = 0.1359$

The approximate percentage of cars that remain in service between 64 and 75 months is 13.59%.
