Total tickets sold = # of kid's tickets sold + # of adult tickets sold
Total money made = amount of money kid's tickets raised + amount the adult tickets made

These can be rephrased as
140 = k + a
and
$1086.40 = $5.30k + $9.40a

Rephrase the first;
140 = k + a
a = 140 - k

Plug the equation into the first;
1086.4 = 5.3k + 9.4a
1086.4 = 5.3k + 9.4(140 - k)
1086.4 = 5.3k + 1316 - 9.4k
-229.6 = -4.1k
<span>k = 56 tickets</span>

C + a = 140......a = 140 - c
5.3c + 9.4a = 1086.4

5.3c + 9.4(140 - c) = 1086.4
5.3c + 1316 - 9.4c = 1086.4
5.3c - 9.4c = 1086.4 - 1316
-4.1c = - 229.6
c = -229.6 / -4.1
c = 56......so their were 56 child tickets sold

Which answer is equal to the quotient in the expression below?
Gennadij [26K]
FIRST section: x^2-3x+2 = x^2-x-2x+2=(x^2-x) -2x+2 = (x^2-x) -2(x-a million) = x(x-a million) -2(x-a million) = (x-2)(x-a million) 2nd section: x^-4 = x^2- 2^2 = (x-2)(x+2) So now your equation looks like this: FIRST section / 2nd section or (x-2)(x-a million) / (x-2)(x+2) and this comes out at (x-a million) / (x+2), so the respond is B.
