Hi!!
The answer to your question is asking us to make an algerbraic equation for this situation.
H = 5V
Also, H + V = 52,000. H and V can then be solves by solving the 2 equations.
The results are 43,333 and 8,667

Answer:

H+V= 52,000

H-5V=0

Step-by-step explanation:

When you start the system of equations you just need to know, that H plus the V is th total ticket numbers, that is H+V=52,000 and that if the the home tema has 5 times more tickets thant he visitor team, in this case you know that H=5V, if you clear to leave the equation equal to 0 you´ll get H-5V=0. Then you just solve the equations and you het that Home tickets are 43,333 and visiting tikets are 8,666.
