The answer is 210 children tickets were sold . if you multiply the first equation by 7 it would be 7x+7y=2590. then subtract equation 2 from 1 you will have 4x=840 so x=210. Also you can use substitution method.
The person that factored the polynomial did one thing wrong -- they used minus signs when they should've used plus signs. We can figure this out because of the values of the quantities in the original trinomial. Since all of them are positive, we know that either there are two plus signs or that there is a minus and a plus sign with the value to the right of the plus sign being greater than the value to the right of the minus sign. But, that wouldn't work here, so the only thing wrong with this answer is that the plus signs should be minus signs.
X= 180
now you have to multiply all them with 180
5(180)= 900
2(180)= 360
The answer is 1719.09 because that’s the total
