Answer:
C) 24 adults
Step-by-step explanation:
Let A be the number of adults and C be the number of children.
If a ticket costs $8 per adult, we can express this as 8A
If a ticket costs $5 per child, we can express this as 5C
Combining the two expressions, we can write 8A+5C=272 as our first equation since the total amount of money collected is $272.
Our second equation would be A+C=40 since there are 40 people.
Now, we can take the second equation and write it as C=40-A so we can substitute the value of C into the first equation as 40-A so we only have to deal with one variable, the amount of adults that went to the theater.
The first equation now becomes 8A+5(40-A)=272 and is much easier to solve:
8A+5(40-A)=272
8A+200-5A=272
3A+200=272
3A=72
A=24
Therefore, there are 24 adults
To obtain an estimate of a parameter of a population, we use confidence intervals.
Confidence intervals:
The larger the sample size, the closest the parameter estimate is to the value of the population, as the margin of error of confidence intervals is inversely proportional to the sample size, that is, a greater sample leads to a smaller margin of error.
Thus, you should select the highest sample size in the options.

Answer:
120 minutes
Explanation:
The film starts at noon (12pm) and takes 120 minutes or 2 hours meaning it will stop and replay at 2:00pm. The documentary is 30 minuets meaning it will finish and replay again at 12:30, 1:00, 1:30 then at 2:00.
