For a particular​ event, 669 tickets were sold for a total of ​$4293. If students paid ​$5 per ticket and nonstudents paid ​$8 p

Answer:

353 tickets.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say that there are s student tickets and n nonstudent tickets.

s + n = 669

5s + 8n = 4293

Multiply -5 by the entire first equation to get...

-5s - 5n = -3345

Combine the two equations.

5s - 5s + 8n - 5n = 4293 - 3345

3n = 948

n = 316

Now, put the number of nonstudent tickets sold back into the first equation.

s + 316 = 669

s = 353 tickets.

Hope this helps!

Choose all the factors of 12. (Check all that apply.)
SSSSS [86.1K]
ANSWER: 1,2,3,4,6,12
EXPLANATION: When a question asks you the factors of a number it is basically just asking you what number are in the multiplication of 12. The numbers all tie in with the number 12 when they are multiplied
EX:
-1 * 12 = 12
-2*6=12
-3*4=12
-6*2=12

A study was recently conducted at a major university to estimate the difference in the proportion of business school graduates w
sveta [45]

Answer:

(0.1875-0.274) - 1.96 \sqrt{\frac{0.1875(1-0.1875)}{400} +\frac{0.274(1-0.274)}{500}}=-0.1412  

(0.1875-0.274) + 1.96 \sqrt{\frac{0.1875(1-0.1875)}{400} +\frac{0.274(1-0.274)}{500}}=-0.0318  

And the 95% confidence interval would be given (-0.1412;-0.0318).  

We are confident at 95% that the difference between the two proportions is between -0.1412 \leq p_A -p_B \leq -0.0318

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

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".  

p_A represent the real population proportion for business  

\hat p_A =\frac{75}{400}=0.1875 represent the estimated proportion for Business

n_A=400 is the sample size required for Business

p_B represent the real population proportion for non Business

\hat p_B =\frac{137}{500}=0.274 represent the estimated proportion for non Business

n_B=500 is the sample size required for non Business

z represent the critical value for the margin of error  

The population proportion have the following distribution  

p \sim N(p,\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}})  

Solution to the problem

The confidence interval for the difference of two proportions would be given by this formula  

(\hat p_A -\hat p_B) \pm z_{\alpha/2} \sqrt{\frac{\hat p_A(1-\hat p_A)}{n_A} +\frac{\hat p_B (1-\hat p_B)}{n_B}}  

For the 95% confidence interval the value of \alpha=1-0.95=0.05 and \alpha/2=0.025, with that value we can find the quantile required for the interval in the normal standard distribution.  

z_{\alpha/2}=1.96  

And replacing into the confidence interval formula we got:  

(0.1875-0.274) - 1.96 \sqrt{\frac{0.1875(1-0.1875)}{400} +\frac{0.274(1-0.274)}{500}}=-0.1412  

(0.1875-0.274) + 1.96 \sqrt{\frac{0.1875(1-0.1875)}{400} +\frac{0.274(1-0.274)}{500}}=-0.0318  

And the 95% confidence interval would be given (-0.1412;-0.0318).  

We are confident at 95% that the difference between the two proportions is between -0.1412 \leq p_A -p_B \leq -0.0318

Find the area of Pentagon ABCDE in which BL perpendicular to AC, CM perpendicular to AD, EN perpendicular to AD such that AC = 8
deff fn [24]

Answer:

Area ABCDE = 82 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

ABCDE = ΔEAD + ΔDAC + ΔCAB

ABCDE = (12×5)/2 + (12×6)/2 + (8×4)/2 = 30+36+16 = 82
