Answer:

81 adult tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

Set up a system of equations

Since the adult tickets and student tickets add to 243, we can do

a+s=243

and the student tickets sold were 2x the adult tickets, we can do

s=2a

We can replace s in the first equation adding to 243 with 2a

a+s(2a)=243\\3a=243\\

Step 2:

Solve for a. We can divide both sides by 3.

a=81

Therefore, there were 81 adult tickets sold.

Step 3:

We can check our work! Since we learned earlier the student tickets are 2x adult tickets, we can multiply 81 by 2 and add that to 81 to see if it equals 243!

s=2a\\s=2(81)\\s=162

And...

162+81=243

So, 81 must be the answer!

The volume of a cone is 763.02. the radius and height of the cone are equal. What is the radius of the cone?
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer:

The radius of the cone is 9cm

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem bothers on the mensuration of solid shapes, a cone

The volume of a cone is expressed as

V=1/3(πr²h)

We were told that the radius r and the height h are equal

I.e r=h

Substituting h=r in the formula we have

V= 1/3(πr²*r)

V =1/3(πr³)

To find the radius r let us substitute our given 763.02cm³ (note we assume unit in cm)

763.02= 1/3(3.142r³)

763.02= (3.142r³)/3

763.02*3=3.142r³

2289.06=3.142r³

r³=2289.06/3.142

r³= 728.54

r= ³√728.54

r= 8.99cm

≈r= 9cm
