Answer:

49 tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

THis is pretty straight forward

So we have the ratio 4:7

We know there were 88 tickets in total but we don’t know the exact amount of adult and kids

So we can Add up the ratio

4+7=11

Now we can divide 88 by 11

you’ll get 7

So by doing this we know there are 7 groups of the ratio for child to adults 4:7

So we just multiply the 7 to each

4*7

7*7

you’ll get 28:49

Now we know there are 28 kid tickets and 49 adult tickets

We know this is correct becuase if you add up the ratio, it’ll be 88

Which is the same as the amount fo people at the hockey game

Sadie finished her math test in sixteen minutes less than three times the amount of times it took her friend Laura to finish.if
amid [387]

Answer:

Sadie took 47 minutes to finish her test.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Laura's time be x minutes.

Then we have:

x + 3x - 16 = 68

4x = 84

x = 21 minutes.

So Sadie took 3(21) - 16 = 63-16

= 47 minutes.

A chemist mixes 175 millilters of solution that is 62% acid with 75 milliliters of pure acid. What percentage of the resulting M
Anton [14]

Answer:

  73.4%

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of acid to mixture volume is ...

  (0.62·175 +1.00·75)/(175 +75) = 183.5/250 = 0.734 = 73.4%

73.4% of the resulting mixture is acid.

If you apply for a job with Globo Corp, there is a 75% chance that you will get an interview.
aivan3 [116]

Answer:

The probability that you will get the job If you apply for a job with Globo Corp=0.36

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

If you apply for a job with Globo Corp, then the probability of getting interview P(A)=75%=0.75

If you get an interview, then the probability of getting job=P(B)=48%=0.48

We have to find the probability that you will get the job If you apply for a job with Globo Corp.

If you apply for a job with Globo Corp, the probability of getting job=P(A)\times P(B)

If you apply for a job with Globo Corp, the probability of getting job=0.75\times 0.48

If you apply for a job with Globo Corp, the probability of getting job=0.36

Hence, the probability that you will get the job If you apply for a job with Globo Corp=0.36

A grower believes that one in five of his citrus trees are infected with the citrus red mite. How large a sample should be taken
mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

n=6147

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Notation and definitions

X=1 number of citrus trees that are infected with the citrus red mite.

n=5 random sample taken

\hat p=\frac{1}{5}=0.2 estimated proportion of citrus trees that are infected with the citrus red mite.

p true population proportion of citrus trees that are infected with the citrus red mite.

Me=0.01 represent the margin of error desired

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".  

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.  

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".  

The population proportion have the following distribution

p \sim N(p,\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n}})

In order to find the critical values we need to take in count that we are finding the interval for a proportion, so on this case we need to use the z distribution. Since our interval is at 95% of confidence, our significance level would be given by \alpha=1-0.95=0.05 and \alpha/2 =0.025. And the critical values would be given by:

t_{\alpha/2}=-1.96, t_{1-\alpha/2}=1.96

The margin of error for the proportion interval is given by this formula:  

ME=z_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{n}}    (a)  

And on this case we have that ME =\pm 0.01 and we are interested in order to find the value of n, if we solve n from equation (a) we got:  

n=\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{(\frac{ME}{z})^2}   (b)  

And replacing into equation (b) the values from part a we got:

n=\frac{0.2(1-0.2)}{(\frac{0.01}{1.96})^2}=6146.56  

And rounded up we have that n=6147
