X=number of adult tickets
y=number of children tickets.
we can suggest this system of equations:

x+y=170
8.7x+5.4y=1224.90

We can solve this system of equations by substitution method:
x=170-y

8.7(170 - y)+5.4 y=1224.90
1479-8.7y+5.4y=1224.90
-3.3 y=1224.90-1479
-3.3 y=-254.1
y=(-254.1) /(-3.3)
y=77

x=170-y
x=170-77
x=93

Answer:93 adult tickts were sold that day.

When lava is expelled from a volcano, it temperature may vary from 700 degrees Celsius to 1200 degrees Celsius. Write an absolut
ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:

Ix - 950°C I ≤ 250°C

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that the temperature may vary from 700 degrees Celsius to 1200 degrees Celsius.

And that this temperature is x.

This means that the minimum value of x is 700°C while maximum of x is 1200 °C

Let's find the average of the two temperature limits given:

x_avg = (700 + 1200)/2 =

x_avg = 1900/2

x_avg = 950 °C

Now let's find the distance between the average and either maximum or minimum.

d_avg = (1200 - 700)/2

d_avg = 500/2

d_avg = 250°C.

Now absolute value equation will be in the form of;

Ix - x_avgI ≤ d_avg

Thus;

Ix - 950°C I ≤ 250°C
