Cost per ticket for the rides = $1.50.

a) Let us assume the number of ride tickets = x.

Total cost of x number of rides = y.

Total amount spent = $48.75.

Amount spent on 20 tickets = 20 × 1.50 = $30

<em>Fair admission charge = Total amount spent - Amount spent on 20 tickets</em>

Let us apply slope-intercept form y=mx+b to get the equation.

Total cost of x number of tickets at the rate $1.50 each ticket = 1.50x.

To<em>tal cost of fair = Total cost of x number of tickets + Fair admission charge.</em>

Answer: $\bold{w=\dfrac{6y-3}{2}}$

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Isolate w by performing the following steps

Multiply by 6 on both sides to clear the denominator
Subtract 3 from both sides
Divide both sides by 2

$y=\dfrac{1}{2}+\dfrac{w}{3}\\\\\\6\bigg[y=\dfrac{1}{2}+\dfrac{w}{3}\bigg]\quad \implies \quad 6y=3+2w\\\\\\6y-3=3-3+2w\quad \implies \quad 6y-3=2w\\\\\\\dfrac{6y-3}{2}=\dfrac{2w}{2}\quad \implies \quad \large\boxed{\dfrac{6y-3}{2}=w}$

fiasKO [112]

Answer:

The probability that the next person asked has two pets is 0.176

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

The frequency distribution of the number of pets owned is presented as follows;

Number of Times ${}$ Frequency ${}$

None ${}$ 354

One ${}$ 981

Two ${}$ 352

Three ${}$ 200

Four ${}$ 113

The probability that the next person asked has two pets = Proportion of the sample that own two pets = 352/(354 + 981 + 352 + 200 + 113) = 0.176

Therefore, the probability that the next person asked has two pets = 0.176
