Answer:

The number of adults is 1,200

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x------> the number of children

y------> the number of adults

we know that

x+y=1800 -------> equation A

2x+4y=6000 -------> equation B

Multiply equation A by -2

-2(x+y)=-2*1800 --------> -2x-2y=-3600 ------> equation C

Adds equation B and equation C

2x+4y=6000\\-2x-2y=-3600\\---------\\4y-2y=6000-3600\\2y=2400\\y=2400/2\\y=1200

x= adult, y = kid

x+y=1800

4x+2y=6000

x=1800-y now put that into the 2nd equation

4(1800-y)+2y=6000

7200-4y+2y=6000

4y-2y=7200-6000

2y=1200

y=600

x=1800-600 = 1200

 so 1200 adults and 600 kids

The volume of a cylindrical container
Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

A. \frac{3}{4}\textrm{ gal}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Volume of the cylindrical container before dilation, V_{i}=1\textrm{ gal}

Scale factor of the dilation, SF=\frac{3}{4}

Therefore, the volume of the dilated cylinder is given as:

V_{f}=SF\times V_{i}

Plug in 1 gal for V_{i} and \frac{3}{4} for SF. Solve for V_{f}. This gives,

V_{f}=\frac{3}{4}\times 1\\V_{f}=\frac{3}{4}\textrm{ gal}

Therefore, the volume of the dilated cylinder is \frac{3}{4} gallons.
