Answer:

"Absolute value" is the non-negative value of a number, disregarding whether or not it has a sign.

Step-by-step explanation:

"Absolute value" is the non-negative value of a number, disregarding whether or not it has a sign. It can be thought of as how far it is away from the number of 0, whether it's to the left or right. Absolute value of a number is written as |x|, where x = any number. Let's say x was -1. |-1| would be 1 because it's 1 away from 0. If x was just 1, then the number would stay the same.

Some parts are missing in the queston. Find attached the picture with the complete question

Answer:

$\large\boxed{\large\boxed{161}}$

Explanation:

Let's put the information in a table step-by step.

(number of remaining students)

Juniors Seniors

Condition

Initially J S

15 seniors left S - 15

Twice juniors as seniors 2(S - 15)

3/4 of the juniors left 1/4×2(S - 15)
1/3 of seniors left 2/3×(S - 15)

At the end, there were 8 more seniors than juniors:

2/3×(S - 15) - 1/4×2(S - 15) = 8

Now you have obtained one equation, which you can solve to find S, the number of senior students, and then the number of junior students.

Solve the equation:

$2/3\times (S - 15) - 1/4\times 2(S - 15) = 8$

Mutilply all by 12:

$8(S - 15)-6(S - 15)=96$

Distribution property:

$8S-120-6S-90=96$

Addtion property of equalities:

$8S-6S=96+120+90$

Add like terms:

$2S=306$

Division property of equalities:

$S=306/2=153$

That is the number of senior students that came out to the information meeting, but the number of students remaining to perform in the school musical is (from the table above):

$2/3\times (S-15)+1/4\times 2(S-15)$
