Answer:

Senior citizen tickets = $9

Student tickets = $11

Step-by-step explanation:

We begin by converting these into simultaneous linear equation;

Senior citizen tickets = a

Student tickets = b

5a + 9b = 144

14a + 6b = 192

5a = 144 - 9b

a = 144/5 - 9b/5

a = 28.8 - 1.8b

We now substitute this into the first equation

14(28.8 - 1.8b) + 6b = 192

403.2 - 25.2b +6b = 192

-19.2b = 192 - 403.2

b = -211.2/-19.2

b = 11

Put the value of b into either equation

5a + 9b = 144

5a + 9(11) = 144

5a +99 = 144

5a = 144-99

5a = 45

a = 9

Explain why you might want to write very large and very small numbers like the ones in the example problem in scientific notatio

slava [35]

Answer:

Extremely large and small numbers that have many zeros are long to write and take up a lot of room. So, by using scientific notation a number can be written shorter. For example, numbers such as 295,000,000,000 can be shortened to 2.95x $10^{11}$ . This is easier to write and understand. This is why the scientific notation is used over standard.
