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

Answer:

two dice are thrown, so S = {(1,1); (1,2); (1,3); ...;(6,5); (6,6)} ---> 36

the sum is 2, 4, 6

sum = 2 --> (1,1) ---> 1

       = 4 --> (1,3); (2;2); (3,1) ---> 3

       = 6 --> (1,5); (2,4); (3,3); (4;2); (5,1) ---> 5

⇒ \frac{1 + 3+ 5}{36} = 9/36 = 1/4

Kenji packed an exercise ball into a cylindrical package . How much space does the package occupy in terms of pi . Enter your an
grandymaker [24]

Answer:

The space that the package would occupy is 45\pi cubic feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

The space that the package occupies is the volume of the cylinder. The volume of an object is the 3 dimensional capacity of the object.

Volume of a cylinder = \pir^{2}h

where: r is the radius and h is the height of the cylinder.

Given that; h = 5 feet and r = 3 feet.

The required volume = \pi × (3)^{2} × 5

                                   = \pi  × 9 × 5

                                  = 45\pi cubic feet

The space that the package would occupy is 45\pi cubic feet.
