The new parking lot must hold twice as many cars as the previous parking lot. The previous parking lot could hold 56 cars. So this means the new parking lot must hold 2 x 56 = 112 cars
Let y represent the number of cars in each row, and x be the number of total rows in the parking lot. Since the number of cars in each row must be 6 less than the number of rows, we can write the equation as:
y = x - 6 (1)
The product of cars in each row and the number of rows will give the total number of cars. So we can write the equation as:
xy = 112 (2)
Using the above two equations, the civil engineer can find the number of rows he should include in the new parking lot.
Using the value of y from equation 1 to 2, we get:
x(x - 6) = 112 (3)
This equation is only in terms of x, i.e. the number of rows and can be directly solved to find the number of rows that must in new parking lot.

Step-by-step explanation:The cost of an adult ticket to the show is $5.5
The cost of a student ticket to the show is $4.25
A family is purchasing 2 adult tickets and 3 student tickets. This means that the total cost of 2 adult tickets would be
2 × 5.5 = $11
It also means that the total cost of 3 student tickets would be
3 × 4.25 = $12.75
The total cost of 2 adult tickets and 3 student tickets would be
11 + 12.75 = $23.75
If the family pays $25, the exact amount of change they should receive is
25 - 23.75 = $1.25
