Answer:
-5 < x < 5
Step-by-step explanation:
|x| < 5
This can be split into two cases: x < 5 and -x < 5 because |x| could be either x or -x depending on whether x is positive, negative, or 0. Solving the second one we get x > -5 so the answer is -5 < x < 5.
We know the total tickets sold = 400.
Let x be the number of adult tickets sold.
That means 400 - x is the number of student tickets.
The revenue from adult tickets will be $3 * x, which we can call 3x.
The revenue from student ticks will be $2 * (400 - x), or 800 - 2x.
The total revenue is $1050, so that means:
3x + (800 - 2x) = 1050.
Removing the parentheses:
3x + 800 - 2x = 1050
Subtracting 800 from both sides:
3x - 2x = 250
Simplifying the left side:
x = 250, which is the number of adult tickets.
400-x = student tickets = 400-250 = 150.
ALWAYS check!
In this case, check the revenue:
3x = 3(250) = 750
2(150) = 300
750 + 300 = 1050. Check!
