Answer:

The number of adults tickets and student tickets purchased is 5 and 3.

Given that,

Tickets to a movie cost $7.25 for adults and $5.50 for students.

A group of friends purchased 8 tickets for $52.75.

Here we assume the no of adult tickets and no of student tickets be x and y.

Based on the above information, the calculation is as follows:

7.25x + 5.50y = 52.75 .............(i)

x + y = 8

x = 8 - y..................(2)

Now put the x value in the equation (1)

So,  

7.25(8-y) + 5.50y = 52.75

7.25 × 8 - 7.25y + 5.50y = 52.75

58 - 1.75y = 52.75

5.25 = 1.75y

y = 3

So,  

x = 8 - 3

= 5

Therefore we can conclude that the number of adults tickets and student tickets purchased is 5 and 3.

-Hope this helps<3

Two coins, A and B, each have a side for heads and a side for tails. When coin A is tossed, the probability it will land tails-s
BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer:

Is the number of tosses for each coin enough for the sampling distribution of the difference in sample proportions PA-PB to be approximately normal?

b. No, 20 tosses for coin A is enough, but 20 tosses for coin B is not enough.

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

The probability of coin A landing tails-side up = 0.5

The proportion of times coin A lands tails-side up (PA) = 20 * 0.5 = 10

Therefore, the probability of coin A landing heads-side up = 0.5 (1 - 0.5)  

And the proportion of times that coin A lands heads-side up = 20 * 0.5 = 10.  

The proportion on either side is equally distributed.

This is why 20 tosses for coin A is enough, since the sample proportions PA is approximately normal, symmetric, and equally distributed.  There will be equal amounts of 10 tosses (0.5 *20) for either heads-side up or tails-side up.

For coin B, the probability of landing tails-side up = 0.8

The proportion of times coin B lands tails-side up (PB) = 20 * 0.8 = 16

Therefore, the probability of coin B landing heads-side up = 0.2 (1 - 0-.8)

The proportion on either side is not equally distributed, but skewed.

This is why 20 tosses for coin B is not enough, since the sample proportions PB is not approximately normal, symmetric, and equally distributed.  There will be 16 tosses landing tails-side up (0.8*20) and only 4 tosses landing heads-side up (0.2*20).

How do you find the area of this composite figure?
Illusion [34]
If you notice the picture below

the composite figure is just a trapezoid sitting on top of a rectangle
and then, the rectangle has a triangular hole in it

so.. get the area of the trapezoid   \bf \textit{area of a trapezoid}=A=\cfrac{h}{2}(a+b)\qquad &#10;\begin{cases}&#10;h=height\\&#10;a,b=\textit{parallel sides or bases}&#10;\end{cases}

then get the area of the rectangle, which is just a 12x14
and then get the area of the triangle, which surely you know is 1/2 bh

then, subtract the triangle's area from the rectangle's area

and whatever is left, namely the difference, add that to the area of the trapezoid, and that's the composite's area

namely the area of the trapezoid plus the rectangle's, minus the triangle's
