To solve for X you need to simplify both sides on the equation 
<span><span><span>23</span><span>(<span><span>4x</span>−5</span>)</span></span>=8

</span><span><span><span><span>(<span>23</span>)</span><span>(<span>4x</span>)</span></span>+<span><span>(<span>23</span>)</span><span>(<span>−5</span>)</span></span></span>=8 *</span>Distribute*

<span><span><span><span>8/3</span>x</span>+<span><span>−10/</span>3</span></span>=<span>8

after that you add 10/3 on both sides 

</span></span><span><span><span><span><span>8/3</span>x</span>+<span><span>−10/</span>3</span></span>+10/3</span>=<span>8+10/3</span></span><span><span><span>8/3</span>x</span>=<span>34/<span>3

finally multiply 3/8 on both sides 
</span></span></span><span><span>(<span>3/8</span>) x </span><span>(<span><span>8/3</span>x</span>)</span></span>=<span><span>(<span>3/8</span>) x </span><span>(<span>34/3</span><span>)

and your answer should be 
X= 17/4
</span></span></span>

The cost of a ticket to the circus is $14.00 for children and $32.00 for adults. On a certain day, attendance at the circus was
Evgesh-ka [11]

400 children and 600 adults bought tickets.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Cost of one child ticket = $14

Cost of one adult ticket = $32

Total attendance = 1000

Revenue generated = $24800

Let,

x be the number of children.

y be the number of adults.

According to given statement;

x+y=1000   Eqn 1

14x+32y=24800   Eqn 2

Multiplying Eqn 1 by 14

14(x+y=1000)\\14x+14y=14000\ \ \ Eqn\ 3

Subtracting Eqn 3 from Eqn 2

(14x+32y)-(14x+14y)=24800-14000\\14x+32y-14x-14y=10800\\18y=10800\\

Dividing both sides by 18

\frac{18y}{18}=\frac{10800}{18}\\y=600

Putting y=800 in Eqn 1

x+600=1000\\x=1000-600\\x=400

400 children and 600 adults bought tickets.
