1. A drama club earned $662.50 from a production where 85 adult tickets were sold and 65
student tickets were sold. An adult ticket costs $2.50 more than a student ticket. Which
system of equations can be used to find a, the cost of an adult ticket, and s, the cost of a
student ticket?
Answers
Answer: The cost of adult ticket is $6.1 and that of student ticket is $2.44
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the cost of adult ticket be 'x' and cost of student ticket be 'y'
From the question, the equations formed are:
[tex]662.5=85x+65y[/tex] .....(1)
[tex]x=2.5y[/tex] ......(2)
Putting value of 'y' from equation 2 to equation 1:
[tex]662.5=85(2.5x)+65y\\\\662.5=271.5y\\\\y=\frac{662.5}{271.5}=\$ 2.44[/tex]
Now, solving for 'x', we get:
[tex]x=2.5(2.44)=\$ 6.1[/tex]
Hence, the cost of adult ticket is $6.1 and that of student ticket is $2.44
Raw scores on behavioral tests are often transformed for easier comparison. A test of reading ability has mean 67 and standard deviation 10 when given to third graders. Sixth graders have mean score 86 and standard deviation 9 on the same test. To provide separate "norms" for each grade, we want scores in each grade to have mean 100 and standard deviation 20. (Round your answers to two decimal places.)
(a) What linear transformation will change third-grade scores x into new scores xnew = a + bx that have the desired mean and standard deviation? (Use b > 0 to preserve the order of the scores.) a = b = (b)

c.) David scored 124, nancy scored 84.27
David scored higher
Step-by-step explanation:
for those in the 3rd grade
mean u = 67
s = 10
we used the z formula
[tex]z=\frac{x-u}{s}[/tex]
[tex]z=\frac{x-67}{10}[/tex]
we have the new score
u = 100
s = 20
we use this formula [tex]z*s+u[/tex]
[tex][\frac{x-67}{10} ]20\\[/tex] + 100
multiply through by 20
[tex][\frac{20x-1340}{10} ] +100[/tex]
dividing the bracket by 10
= [tex]2x-134+100[/tex]
= [tex]2x-34[/tex]
from this solution above,
a = -34 and b = 2
b.)
we solve for those in the 6th grade
u = 86
s = 9
[tex]\frac{x-86}{9}[/tex]
for new score,
y = 100
s = 20
[tex][\frac{x-86}{9} ]20+100[/tex]
[tex]2.22x-191.11+100\\= 2.22x - 91.11[/tex]
from this solution
a = -91.11
b = 2.22
c.) if David scored 79
[tex]= 2(x)-34[/tex]
= 2(79) - 34
= 158 - 34
= 124
if nancy scored 79
= 2.22(79) - 91.11
= 175.38 - 91.11
= 84.27
from these scores we can see that David scored higher in his grade

Suppose that the logons to a computer network follow a Poisson process with an average of 3 logons per minute. (a) What is the mean time between logons (in minutes)
Answers
Answer:
The mean time between logons is of 0.3333 minutes.
Step-by-step explanation:
Poisson process with an average of 3 logons per minute.
This means that the time between logons follows an exponential distribution, which mean is given by:
[tex]E(X) = \frac{1}{\lambda}[/tex]
For this question, we have that [tex]\lambda = 3[/tex], and thus:
[tex]E(X) = \frac{1}{\lambda} = \frac{1}{3} = 0.3333[/tex]
The mean time between logons is of 0.3333 minutes.

Which is the graph of an even monomial function?
Answers
Answer:
The graph of an even function is symmetric about the y-axis. The graph of an odd function is symmetric about the x-axis. It is possible that the use of these two words originated with the observation that the graph of a polynomial function in which all variables are to an even power is symmetric about the y -axis.
A research team conducted a study showing that approximately 30% of all businessmen who wear ties wear them so tightly that they actually reduce blood flow to the brain, diminishing cerebral functions. At a board meeting of 30 businessmen, all of whom wear ties, what are the following probabilities?
a. at least one tie is too tight
b. more than two ties are too tight
c. no tie is too tight
d. at least 18 ties are not too tight
Answers
Answer:
a) 0.9998
b) 0.9979
c) 0.7
d) 0.9155
Step-by-step explanation:
P( people who wear their ties tightly ) = 0.3
P( people who do not wear their ties tightly ) = 1 - 0.3 = 0.7
sample size ( n ) = 30
Given that the events are independent and there are only two outcomes we will apply Binomial distribution
a) P( at least one tie is too tight )
P ( x ≥ 1 ) = 1 - P ( x < 1 ) = 1 - P ( x = 0 )
= 1 - 0.00002 = 0.9998 ( excel function: 1 - BINOMDIST(0,30,0.3,0) )
b) P( more than two ties are too tight )
P ( x > 2 ) = 1 - P ( x ≤ 2 ) = 1 - BINOMDIST(2, 30, 0.3, 1 )
= 1 - 0.002113178
= 0.9979
c) P ( no tie is tight )
P ( x = 0 ) = 0.7
d) P( at least 18 ties are not too tight ) i.e. ( P = 0.7 )
P ( x ≥ 18 ) = 1 - P( x ≤ 17 )
= 1 - BINOMDIST ( 17, 30, 0.7, 1 )
= 1 - 0.08447006
= 0.9155

Answer:
sin θ = 12 / 13
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that :-
A right triangle having
Hypotenuse = 13
adjacent side ( Base ) = 5
Opposite side ( perpendicular ) = ?
To Find :-
sin θSolution :-
Firstly ,we need to find opposite side ( missing side ) of triangle
Using Pythagorean theorem
a ² + b ² = c ²
Where, a and b is the base and c is the height of triangle.substitute the value
( 5 ) ² + ( b) ² = ( 13 ) ²
evaluate the exponent
25 + b² = 169
subtract 25 from each side
25 - 25 + b² = 169 - 25
b ² = 144
Take the square root of each side
√b² = √144
b = 12
Hence , opposite side , b = 12
And , Finding sin θ
sin θ = opposite side / hypotenuse
sin θ = 12 / 13

There is a mound of g pounds of gravel in a quarry. Throughout the day, 200 pounds of gravel are added to the mound. Two orders of 600 pounds are sold and the gravel is removed from the mound. At the end of the day, the mound has 1,400 pounds of gravel.
Write the equation that describes the situation. Then solve for g.
Answers
Answer:
g + 200 - 2*600 = 1400
g = 2400 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
g + 200 - 2*600 = 1400
g + 200 - 1200 = 1400
g - 1000 = 1400
g = 2400
A department store buys 100 shirts at a cost of $2000 and sells them at a selling price of $25 each. Find the percent markup.

Selling price of 1shirt = 25
[tex]\% mark \ up = \frac{selling \ price - cost \ price }{cost \ price } \times 100 = \frac{25- 20}{20}\times 100 = \frac{5}{20} \times 100 = 25 \%[/tex]
You are told that a random sample of 150 people from Manchester New Hampshire have been given cholesterol tests, and 60 of these people had levels over the "safe" count of 200. Construct a 95% confidence interval for the population proportion of people in New Hampshire with cholesterol levels over 200.
Answers
Answer:
The 95% confidence interval for the population proportion of people in New Hampshire with cholesterol levels over 200 is (0.3216, 0.4784).
Step-by-step explanation:
In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of [tex]\pi[/tex], and a confidence level of [tex]1-\alpha[/tex], we have the following confidence interval of proportions.
[tex]\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]
In which
z is the z-score that has a p-value of [tex]1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}[/tex].
You are told that a random sample of 150 people from Manchester New Hampshire have been given cholesterol tests, and 60 of these people had levels over the "safe" count of 200.
This means that [tex]n = 150, \pi = \frac{60}{150} = 0.4[/tex]
95% confidence level
So [tex]\alpha = 0.05[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a p-value of [tex]1 - \frac{0.05}{2} = 0.975[/tex], so [tex]Z = 1.96[/tex].
The lower limit of this interval is:
[tex]\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.4 - 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.4*0.6}{150}} = 0.3216[/tex]
The upper limit of this interval is:
[tex]\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.4 + 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.4*0.6}{150}} = 0.4784[/tex]
The 95% confidence interval for the population proportion of people in New Hampshire with cholesterol levels over 200 is (0.3216, 0.4784).
