We have that the total students there are 500. The 12-graders there are 200. Probability is defined as the ratio of positive outcomes of an event, over all the possible outcomes. Suppose we pick student randomly. Then, there are 200 positive outcomes (positive outcome: we pick a student in 12th grade) and there are totally 500 outcomes (we can pick 500 students in total from Riverside High School). This ratio gives:
. The requested probability is 0.40
Answer:
The number that comes after 144five is:
= 200five.
Step-by-step explanation:
Adding 1 to 144 base 5 will result in:
144
+ 1
= 200
b) To obtain the next number that comes after 144five, add 1five to 144five. Since the numbers are in base 5, 1five added to 4five will result in 0 with 1 carried backward. When 1 is added to the next 4, the result will be 0 with 1 carried backward. 1 added to 1 = 2, all in base 5. Figures in base 5 cannot exceed 4. The usual numbers for a base 5 operation are 0, 1, 2, 3, and 4.
Answer: 350 adult tickets
Step-by-step explanation:
(omg I remember this question!)
- a stands for the number of adult tickets sold
student tickets : a + 65
<em>the equation for the prob: </em>
765 = a + (a + 65)
<em>solve:</em>
combine 'like terms'
1.) 765 = a + a + 65
2.) 765 = 2a + 65
<u>- 65 - 65 </u>
700= 2a
divide by 2
700/2 = 2a/2
<em>(700/2 = 350) </em>
<em>(the "2" in 2a is cancelled out by the other 2)</em>
<u>350 = a </u>
How could it be a fraction? All the numbers are whole & no division? May I assume the #s listed next to each other are multiplied, i.e. 7 2? If so,...
multiply first...
14 * 15 + 10*3 + 1755 (9*13*15)
210 + 30 + 1755
1,995
True because of the absolute value bars
