To find the answer, set up a system of equations.

Let x=adult tickets and y=senior citizen tickets.

x+y=556
22x+12y=8492

Change the first equation to make it easy to combine with the second equation.

y=556-x

Now substitute (556-x) for y in the second equation.

22x+12(556-x)=8492

Simplify and combine like terms.

22x+6672-12x=8492
10x=1820
x=182

182 adult tickets were sold, so to solve for the number of senior citizen tickets sold, subtract 182 from 556.

556-182=374

374 senior citizen tickets were sold.

Solve for z: 11=6|-2z| -5
skad [1K]

Answer:

the roots are {-4/3, 4/3}

Step-by-step explanation:

Begin the solution of 11=6|-2z| -5 by adding 5 to both sides:

11=6|-2z| -5 becomes 16 = 6|-2z|.

Dividing both sides by 12 yields

16/12 = |-z|

There are two cases here:  first, that one in which z is positive and second the one in which z is negative.

If z is positive, 4/3 = -z, and so z = -4/3, and:

If z is negative, 4/3 = z

Thus the roots are {-4/3, 4/3}

0.8 x 44 = 35.2

So, the final answer is: 35.2.
