Roman55 [17]3 years ago

Answer:

7 , 11

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the second number be 'x'

the first number = x - 4

Twice the second number : 2*x = 2x

5times first = 5*(x -4) = 5*x - 5*4 = 5x - 20

13 less than 5 times the first = 5x - 20 - 13 = 5x - 33

5x - 33 = 2x

Add 33 to both sides

5x - 33 + 33 = 2x +33

5x = 2x + 33

Subtract '2x'from both sides

5x - 2x = 2x - 2x + 33

3x = 33

Divide both sides by 3

\frac{3x}{3}=\frac{33}{3}

x = 11

First number = x - 4 = 11 - 4 = 7

The numbers are 7 , 11

5000 people attend 1 movie each in one week. Regular show ticket is $9.50 and matinee tickets are $7. The total amount spent was
yuradex [85]

Answer:

1400

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Cost of Regular ticket = $9.50

          Cost of Matinee tickets= $7

          Total number of people= 5000

          Total spending in watching movie= $44000.

Lets assume total number of people attended matinee be "x".

∴ Number of people attended Regualr show= (5000-x)

We know, total cost= Price\ of\ each\ ticket \times number\ of\ people

Now, forming an equation to show total spending on tickets.

⇒ \$ 9.50(5000-x)+ \$ 7x= \$ 44000

Using distributive property of multiplication to multiply 9.50 with 5000 and -x.

⇒ 47500-9.50x+7x= 44000

⇒ 47500-2.5x= 44000

Adding both side by 2.5x

⇒ 47500 = 44000 + 2.5x

subtracting both side by 44000

⇒ 3500= 2.5x

Dividing both side by 2.5

⇒x= \frac{3500}{2.5}

∴x= 1400

Hence, number of people attended the matinee show are 1400.

You're at a clothing store that dyes your clothes while you wait. You get to pick from 4 pieces of clothing
Zielflug [23.3K]

1 / 12 is the probability that you'll end up with an  orange hat.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Given that,

  • There are 4 piece of clothing ⇒ shirt, pants, socks, or hat
  • There are 3 possible colors ⇒ purple, blue, or orange

<u>To find the total number of outcome :</u>

Total outcomes ⇒ (number of clothes) × (number of colors)

⇒ 4 × 3 = 12

 Therefore, there will be 12 different possibilities.

<u>The 12 different outcomes are :</u>

⇒ Purple shirt, blue shirt, orange shirt

⇒ Purple pants, blue pants, orange pants

⇒ Purple socks, blue socks, orange socks

⇒ Purple hat, blue hat, and orange hat.

Now, the probability that you'll end up with an  orange hat if you choose on random of 12 possibilities ⇒ No.of orange hats / Total no.of outcomes.

∴ P(orange hat) = 1 / 12
