b = number of tickets sold before

a = number of tickets sold after

cost of a ticket = number of tickets times cost per ticket

before cost = 39.95b

after cost = 54.95a

total cost = 925000

39.95b + 54.95a = 925000

total number tickets = 20000

b + a = 20000

we have

39.95b + 54.95a = 925000

b + a = 20000

multiply second equation by -39.95 and add to first equation

39.95b + 54.95a = 925000

-39.95b-39.95a = -799000 +

0b+15a = 126000

15a = 126000

divide bot sides by 15

a = 8400

sub back

b + a = 20000

b+8400 = 20000

minus 8400 both sides

b = 11600

11,600 tickets sold before

8400 tickets sold after

What is theformula for finding the hight of a 30-60-90 degree triangle

miv72 [106K]

We don't know which side your triangle is sitting on, so the 'height'
could be any one of three values.

Here are the two simple tools that tell you everything you want to
know about a 30°-60°-90° triangle. These are worth memorizing:

-- The side opposite the 30° angle is 1/2 of the hypotenuse.

-- The side opposite the 60° angle is 1/2 of the hypotenuse times √3 .

I memorized them exactly 60 years ago. They've been very useful,
and as far as I know, they haven't changed.

the height of a house having three rooms of the dimensional 9 feet into 12 feet 14 feet into 16 feet and 12 feet into 14 feet re

Semmy [17]

Answer:

Amount required = 2,217,600

Step-by-step explanation:

Dimensions of the rooms are as follows;

Room 1; 9 feet × 12 feet

Room 2; 14 ft × 16 ft

Room 3; 12 ft × 14 ft

Perimeter of rooms;

P1 = 2(9 + 12) = 42 ft

P2 = 2(14 + 16) = 60 ft

P3 = 2(12 + 14) = 52 ft

Total perimeter; P = 42 + 60 + 52 = 154 ft

Height is 90 ft.

Thus, total area is;

A = 154 × 90

A = 13860 ft²

Rate of painting is 160 per Sq.ft.

Thus amount to paint entire area = 160 × 13860 = 2217600

Suppose that 15% of the fields in a given agricultural area are infested with the sweet potato whitefly. One hundred fields in t

hram777 [196]

Answer:

a. $\mu=15$

b. $\mu=7.8586 \ and \ \mu=22.1414$

c. Choice A- Based on limits above, it is unlikely that we would see x = 45, so it might be possible that the trials are not independent.

Step-by-step explanation:

a.Binomial distribution is defined by the expression

$P(X=k)=C_k^n.p^k.(1-p)^{n-k}$

Let n be the number of trials, $n=100$

and p be the probability of success, $p=15\%$

The mean of a binomial distribution is the probability x sample size.

$\mu=np=100\times0.15=15$

b.Limits within which p is approximately 95%

sd of a binomial distribution is given as: $\sigma=\sqrt npq\\q=1-p$

Therefore, $\sigma=\sqrt(100\times0.015\times0.85)=3.5707$

Use the empirical rule to find the limits. From the rule, approximately 95% of the observations are within to standard deviations from mean.

$sd_1=>\mu-2\sigma=15-2\times3.3507=7.8586\\sd_2=>\mu-2\sigma=15+2\times3.3507=22.1414$

Hence, approximately 95% of the observations are within 7.8586 and 22.1414 (areas of infestation).

c. $x=45$ is not within the limits in b above (7.8586,22.1414). X=45 appears to be a large area of infestation. A.Based on limits above, it is unlikely that we would see x = 45, so it might be possible that the trials are not independent.

I WILL MARK BRAINLIEST!! Which could have been the first step in creating this construction?

Fed [463]

Answer:

Place the compass point on vertex Y and draw an arc that intersects YX and YZ

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the construction of dividing an angle inteo two equal parts.

we have to find the first step of construction.

As seen in figure the angle ∠XYZ is dividing into two equal parts.

The first step of construction is to place the needle of compass at Y and draw an arc that intersects YX and YZ.

Hence, the correct option is option C.

Place the compass point on vertex Y and draw an arc that intersects YX and YZ
