The number of tickets sold are:

  • 30 children tickets were sold
  • 33 adult tickets were sold

<h3>How to determine the number of tickets sold to children and seniors?</h3>

From the question, we have the following parameters:

Number of tickets = 63

Total amount = 444 Birr

Adult ticket = 8 Birr per adult

Children ticket = 6 Birr per adult

Represent the children tickets with x and adults ticket with y.

So, we have the following system of equations

x + y = 63

6x + 8y = 444

Express the equations as a matrix

x      y

1       1       63

6      8       444

Apply the following transformation

R2 = R2 - 6R1

This gives

x      y

1       1       63

0      2       66

Apply the following transformation

R2 = 1/2R2

x      y

1       1       63

0      1       33

From the above matrix, we have the following system of equations

x + y = 63

y = 33

Substitute y = 33 in x + y = 63

x + 33 = 63

Subtract 33 from both sides of the above equation

x = 30

Hence, 30 children tickets were sold and 33 adult tickets were sold

E = expresso
m = muffins

2e + 3m = 10.....multiply by -2
4e + 2m = 12
----------------
-4e - 6m = -20 (result of multiplying by -2)
4e + 2m = 12
------------------add
-4m = -8
m = -8/-4
m = 2....so muffins cost $ 2 a piece <===

4e + 2m = 12
4e + 2(2) = 12
4e + 4 = 12
4e = 12 - 4
4e = 8
e = 8/4
e = 2......so expresso's cost $ 2 a piece <===

Suppose that water is pouring into a swimming pool in the shape of a right circular cylinder at a constant rate of 8 cubic feet
adell [148]

Answer:

dh/dt = 0,07 ft/min

Step-by-step explanation:

The swimming pool has the shape of right circular cylinder, therefore its volume is

V(c) = π*x²*h

Where x is the radius of the base and h the height

We take differentiation on both sides of the equation to get:

dV/dt  =  π*x²*dh/dt

The rate of change in height of water in the pool, is independent of the height of the water, since the pool is a right crcular cylinder, and dV/dt is constant at 8 ft³/min.

Then:

8  = π*x²*dh/dt

dh/dt = 8 /  π*x²

dh/dt = 8/113,04

dh/dt = 0,07 ft/min
