Beyonce and guns n roses had the two top-grossing north american concert tours for 2016, together generating $300 million in tickets sales. if guns n roses took in $38 million less than beyonce, how much did each tour generate?

Step-by-step explanation:

B + G = 300 (million)

G = B - 38 (million)

B + B - 38 = 300

2B - 38 = 300

2B = 300 + 38

2B = 338

B = 338/2

B = 169 million <=== Beyonce

G = B - 38

G = 169 - 38

G = 131 million < Guns N Roses

the answer   is 200

step-by-step explanation:

this is a problem about poisson probabilities.   i don't know if you've

already studied poisson distributions, or if you have a place to look

to read more about the subject.  

here's how you can see a poisson distribution coming.   when there are

a lot of events that may happen at any time (or any place), and when

you're counting how many of them happen at a particular time (or a

particular place), and each event is independent of the others, then

the result is a poisson distribution.   this is roughly true for the

chocolate chips; one chip being in a cookie has only a small effect on

the probability that another chip will be in the cookie.

once you know you have a poisson distribution, you know a lot.   there

is only one parameter to a poisson distribution, so if you know the

mean, you know everything.   the form of the distribution is

  probability of n chips = {[e^(-x)]*(x^n)} / (n! )
