ANSWER

8x + 3y = 2000

x => The number of adults

y => The number of children

EXPLANATION

Let the number of adults be x.

Let the number of children be y.

Each adult will be charged $8 admission. This would mean that the charges for x adults will be:

8 * x = $8x

Each child will be charged $3 admission. This would mean that the charges for y children will be:

3 * y = $3y

The club wants to earn $2000 from admission charges. This means that adding the total charges for adults and children should yield $2000.

Therefore, we have:

8x + 3y = 2000

The variables are:

x => The number of adults

y => The number of children

B A C

The longest angle is opposite to the longest side in a triangle. The same goes for the shortest and middle angles.

B is opposite to the 57 degree angle, the shortest angle, so it’s the shortest side. A is opposite to the 59 degree angle, so it is the second shortest side. C is opposite to the 64 degree angle, the largest angle, so it’s the longest side.

The diameter of the circle is the same as the side length of the bounding square. The radius of the circle is 8 in, so the side length of the square is 16 in.

Then the area between the square and circle is obtained by subtracting the area of the circle from the area of the square:

$A_{\rm circle}=\pi(8\,\mathrm{in})^2=64\pi\,\mathrm{in}^2$

$A_{\rm square}=(16\,\mathrm {in})^2=256\,\mathrm{in}^2$

and the area you want is

$256-64\pi\,\mathrm{in}^2\approx54.9\,\mathrm{in}^2$
