A. X^2-10x. =-8
To complete the square you get half of -10 and then square that number half of -10 is -5 and -5 times -5 equals positive 25 that would you add to each side

x^2-10x+25=-8+25
17

FromTheMoon [43]

The statement which explains Krissa’s error is "She switched the prices of the tickets" ⇒ A

Step-by-step explanation:

A college is selling tickets for a winter fund-raiser

  • One day, Krissa sold 14 adult tickets and 8 student tickets for a total of $376
  • The next day, she sold 7 adult tickets and 11 student tickets for a total of $272
  • The price of one adult ticket is a
  • The price of one student ticket is s
  • She wrote and solved the following system of equations.  14a + 8s = 376  and 7a + 11s = 272
  • She found that the price of one student ticket is $20 and the price of one adult ticket is $12

We need to find which statement explains Krissa’s error

∵ The system of equations is:

   14a + 8s = 376  ⇒ (1)

    7a + 11s = 272 ⇒ (2)

Multiply equation (2) by -2 to eliminate x

∵ -14a - 22s = -544 ⇒ (3)

Add equations (1) and (3)

∴ -14s = -168

Divide both sides by -14

∴ s = 12

Substitute the value of s in equation (2) to find a

∵ 7a + 11(12) = 272

∴ 7a + 132 = 272

Subtract 132 from both sides

∴ 7a = 140

Divide both sides by 7

∴ a = 20

∵ a represents the price of one adult ticket

∴ The price of one adult ticket is $20

∵ s represents the price of one student ticket

∴ The price of one student ticket is $12

∵ She found that the price of one student ticket is $20 and

   the price of one adult ticket is $12

- She switched the prices of the tickets

∴ Her error is, she switched the prices of the tickets

The statement which explains Krissa’s error is "She switched the prices of the tickets"
