Answer:
The reason why this may be happening is because the expenses may be higher than the amount of revenue that the business is making, the cost of rent, paying the employees and running the business may be higher than the revenue that is being made. The inflows may be higher than the outflows, in which case the profit is lower than the loss and may be the reason why the owner is having trouble keeping the business running.
To solve, you would need to make two equations and substitute one in for the other. Let a = # of adults, and c = # of children
5a + 2c = 1,220
a + c = 295
a + c = 295
-c -c
a = 295 - c
5(295 - c) + 2c = 1,220
1,475 - 5c + 2c = 1,220
1,475 - 3c = 1,220
1,475 - 3c = 1,220
-1,475 -1,475
-3c = -255
-3c/-3 = -255/-3
c = 85
a + c = 295
a + 85 = 295
-85 -85
a = 210

Hope this helps!
the last one D)4.5298 l check in calculator it did not come correct but I say the last one
Click off the first one because 180 (Thea) < 225 (Eleanor). Then keep the second one and click the third and fourth one.
