Answer:

a ≈ 14 or 6

Step-by-step explanation:

264 = π × a × (20 - a)

a(20 - a) = $\frac{264}{Pi}$ ≈ 84 (rounded off to nearest whole number)

Opening the brackets we get;

a² - 20a + 84 = 0

Applying the quadratic formula we get:

a ≈ 14 or 6

Alexxandr [17]

S + a = 300...s = 300 - a
8s + 12a = 3200

8(300 - a) + 12a = 3200
2400 - 8a + 12a = 3200
-8a + 12a = 3200 - 2400
4a = 800
a = 800/4
a = 200 <==== 200 adult tickets

s = 300 - a
s = 300 - 200
s = 100 <=== 100 student tickets
