Answer:
x = 8
y = 146
Error = 4.86%
Step-by-step explanation:
Number of business class passenger = x
and the economy class passenger = y
Total number of passengers = 154
x + y = 154 ------(1)
Cost of business class tickets and economy class tickets are €320 and €85 respectively.
Total amount received by airlines is €14970.
320x + 85y = 14970
64x + 17y = 2994 --------(2)
Multiply equation (1) by 17 and subtract from equation (2)
(64x + 17y) - (17x + 17y) = 2994 - 2618
47x = 376
x = 8
From equation (1),
8 + y = 154
y = 154 - 8
y = 146
Airline officer wrote down the amount received as €14270
Then difference from the actual amount received = 14970 - 14270
= €700
% Error =
=
= 4.676
≈ 4.68%
Therefore, x = 8 and y = 146
and % error = 4.68%
