Answer:

30 adult tickets and 24 kid tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

set up equations

x=adult tickets

y=kid tickets

x(adult tickets)+y(kid tickets)=54(people in total)

x+y=54

$8x+$5y=$360

$8 per ticket for adults

$5 per ticket for kids

total of $360 earned

8x+5y=360

↓

x+y=54

8x+5y=360

solve by elimination or substitution or even graph to get

(x,y)=(30,24)

x=30

y=24

Find the value of 4/5 divided by 8/15. You must simplify.
mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming you meant fractions, to divide them, you must multiply the reciprocal of that fraction. You'll then have:

4/5x15/8

Reduce the numbers of the greatest common factor which is 5:

4x3/8

Reduce the numbers of the greatest common factor which is now 4:

3/2 is your answer

A large operator of timeshare complexes requires anyone interested in making a purchase to first visit the site of interest. His
Mkey [24]

Answer:

<em>0.143.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step to take in answering this question is to take or determine the probability in each cases, multiply and sum them up. Therefore, let us delve right into the solution of this problem;

[a]. Historical data indicates that 20% of all potential purchasers select a day visit. Thus, the probability that potential purchasers selects a day visit = 0.20.

[b]. Historical data indicates that 50% choose a one-night visit.  Thus, the probability that potential purchasers selects a one-night visit= 0.50.

[c]. Historical data indicates that 30% of all potential purchasers opt for a two-night visit. Thus, the probability that potential purchasers  opt for a two-night visit = 0.30.

[d].Historical data indicates that 10% of day visitors ultimately make a purchase. Thus, the probability that a day visitors ultimately make a purchase = 0.1.

[e]. The probability for  40% of one-night visitors buy a unit =0.4

[f]. The probability for  40% of two nights decide to buy =0.4.

<u>STEP ONE: </u> Determine the probability that the visitor makes a purchase.

The probability that the visitor makes a purchase = [a] × [d] + [b] × [e] + [c] × [f]. = 0.2 × 0.1 + 0.5 × 0.4 + 0.3 × 0.4 = 0.02 + 0.02 + 0.12 = 0.14.

<u>STEP TWO:</u> Determine How likely is it that this person made a day visit.

0.2 × 0.1/ 0.14 = 0.1428571428571429
