Example:
This suggests two solutions,
and
.
However, upon plugging these solutions back into the equation, you get
which checks out, but
does not because
is defined only for
(assuming you're looking for real solutions only). So, we call
an extraneous solution, and the complete solution set (over the real numbers) is

John sold 18 general admission tickets and 11 VIP tickets.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
Cost of each general admission = $50
Cost of each VIP ticket = $55
Total tickets sold = 29
Total revenue generated = $1505
Let,
x represent the number of general admission tickets sold
y represent the number of VIP tickets.
x+y=29 Eqn 1
50x+55y=1505 Eqn 2
Multiplying Eqn 1 by 50
Subtracting Eqn 3 from Eqn 2
Dividing both sides by 5
Putting y=11 in Eqn 1
John sold 18 general admission tickets and 11 VIP tickets.

Answer:
64% of Americans say social media have a mostly negative effect on the way things are going in the U.S. today. Just one-in-ten Americans say social media sites have a mostly positive effect on the way things are going, and one-quarter say these platforms have a neither positive nor negative effect
Step-by-step explanation:
The value of x from the given equation is 5/3
<h3>How to determine the value</h3>
Since the three points are collinear to U, they are on a straight line which equals 0
Then we have,
UM + UD = MD
5x+30 + 10x+20 = 3x+80
Collect like terms
5x + 10x + 50 = 3x + 80
15x - 3x = 80 - 50
12x = 30
x = 30/12 = 15/6 = 5/3
Thus, the value of x from the given equation is 5/3
