Megan's solution isn't correct. The first mistake: she subtracted 5x from the right-hand side of the equation, but added 5x to the left-hand side. The second mistake: she divided the right-hand side of the equation by 11, but didn't divide the left-hand side.
Sarah has spent 7 first class tickets, and 6 coach tickets that totals for 13 people that took the trip.
$1040 * 7 = $7280
$140 * 6 = $840
$7280 + $840 = $8120 for Sarah's total budget she spent for 7 first class tickets and 6 coach tickets for 13 people that took the trip. Answer: 7 first class tickets. 6 coach tickets.
Hope this helps! <em> </em><em>~ ShadowXReaper069</em>
