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.

What is the volume of the cylinder with a radius of 8 and height of 4<br><br>​
mr Goodwill [35]

Answer:

Hey there!

The formula for cylinder volume is r^2h\pi, where r is the radius, h is the height, and \pi is a constant, roughly equal to 3.14.

Substituting all of these values into the equation:

8^2(4)(3.14)

804.84\\

Thus, the volume for the cylinder is 804.84 units cubed.

Hope this helps :)
