A system of equations is good for a problem like this.
Let x be the number of student tickets sold
Let y be the number of adult tickets sold
x + y = 200
2x + 3y = 490
x = 200 - y
2(200 - y) + 3y = 490
400 - 2y + 3y = 490
400 + y = 490
y = 90
The number of adult tickets sold was 90.
x + 90 = 200 --> x = 110
2x + 3(90) = 490 --> 2x + 270 = 490 --> 2x = 220 --> x = 110
The number student tickets sold was 110.
Answer:
8 red marbles.
Step-by-step explanation:
All together we have 40 marbles. The fraction of marbles that are red is 1/5 which means that we should divide the total number of marbles, which is 40 by the denominator ( Bottom number of fraction ) 5 so that we get the number of groups that have 1 red marble in them. In this case we have 8 groups.
40/5=8
You always divide by the denominator ( Bottom number of fraction ) first and then you multiply your answer by the numerator ( Top number of fraction ) .
If each group has 1 red marble in it and we have 8 groups, it means that we have 8 red marbles in the bag.
1 * 8 = 8 red marbles in the bag
If the numerator (number above the fraction line) was more than one, then this would mean that we have more than 1 marble in each group of marbles.
Example:
If we had 3/5 we would have 3 marbles in each group of marbles. This means that instead of doing 1 * 8 we would have to do 3 * 8 = 24. We would have 24 red marbles in the bag.
Easy and quick way if you do not need the explanation:
Another way we could do this is by simply multiplying the fraction ( 1/5 ) by the total number of marbles ( 40 ). This would still give us an answer of 8 red marbles in the bag. 40/5=8, 8*1=8
The value of the probability P(A and B) is 0.20
<h3>How to determine the
probability?</h3>
The given parameters about the probability are
P(A or B) = 0.9
P(A) = 0.5
P(B) = 0.6
To calculate the probability P(A and B), we use the following formula
P(A and B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A or B)
Substitute the known values in the above equation
P(A and B) = 0.5 + 0.6 - 0.9
Evaluate the expression
P(A and B) = 0.2
Hence, the value of the probability P(A and B) is 0.20

Answer: 8.25
Explanation: You are looking to find something constant or something that stays the same. Something that does stay the same is how much money she earned each hour. So you would do 453.75/55. And then find k, or the constant of proportionality. Which is $8.25. You’re welcome!
