188 children and 155 adults were admitted that day.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Cost of one children admission = $2.50

Cost of one adult admission = $5.80

Number of people entered = 343

Total admission fees collected = $1369

Let,

Number of children admission = x

Number of adult admission = y

According to given statement;

x+y=343     Eqn 1

2.50x+5.80y=1369     Eqn 2

Multiplying Eqn 1 by 2.50

2.50(x+y=343)\\2.50x+2.50y=857.50\ \ \ Eqn\ 3

Subtracting Eqn 3 from Eqn 2

(2.50x+5.80y)-(2.50x+2.50y)=1369-857.50\\2.50x+5.80y-2.50x-2.50y=511.50\\3.30y=511.50

Dividing both sides by 3.30

\frac{3.30y}{3.30}=\frac{511.50}{3.30}\\y=155

Putting y=155 in Eqn 1

x+155=343\\x=343-155\\x=188

188 children and 155 adults were admitted that day.

Which statement is true about the domain of y = 3(2^-x)? Explain.
SVEN [57.7K]
We want to determine the domain of {y=3 \cdot 2^{-x}=3 \cdot ({2^{-1}})^x=3 \cdot ({ \frac{1}{2}})^x

any function of the form y=f(x)=a \cdot b^x is called an "exponential function",
the only condition is that b is positive and different from 1, and a is a nonzero real number.

The domain of such functions is all real numbers.

That is for any x, the expression <span>3(2^-x) "makes sense".



Answer: </span><span>The domain is all real numbers</span>
