Answer: There were 40 adult tickets and 28 children's tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of adult tickets sold.

Let y represent the number of children's tickets sold.

An event sold $608 worth of tickets adult tickets cost $11 while children's tickets cost $6. It means that

11x + 6y = 608 - - - - - - 1

If 68 tickets were sold, it means that

x + y = 68

Substituting x = 68 - y into equation 1, it becomes

11(68 - y) + 6y = 608

748 - 11y + 6y = 608

- 11y + 6y = 608 - 748

- 5y = 140

y = 140/5 = 28

x = 68 - y = 68 - 28

x = 40

First you find the area of  both circles... The smaller one is Pi, and the other one is 1.75pi. Take 1.75pi and multiply it by 13, getting 22.75pi. Do the same for the other circle, getting 13pi. Now subtract the former number by the latter number, getting 9.75pi, and that is the volume.

Five more than the product of two and a number,
never [62]

Answer:

It was difficult reading the question, as written.  Check my assumptions.

Step-by-step explanation:

"five more than the product of two and a number,

decreased by seven"

---

Let the "number" be a.

We are told "five more than . ." means +5,

"the product of two and a number" means 2a,

"decreased by seven" mean -7

Put the statements together to obtain:

+5+2a-7

Simplify to 2a-2

Evaluate when a = 8:

2a-2

2(8)-2

16-2

= 14
