The buyers are telling the seller that $40 per t-shirt is way too much. There are multiple stores I can name that will sell you a t-shirt for five dollars, so it just looks like a bad deal. The buyers are saying that the price needs to go down.
Sorry, nothing is attached?
I know the parabola will open downward because the leading coefficient of the equation, being -5, is negative/less than zero.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
13 children and 9 adults if the total cost is $152.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x children and y adults
x + y = 22 (1)
5.5x + 9y = 125.5 (2)
y = 22 - x
5.5x + 9(22 - x) = 125.5
5.5x + 198 - 9x = 125.5
-3.5x = 125.5 - 198
-3.5x = -72.5
x = 20.7
y = 22 - x = 1.3
Which is not possible
If the total cost is $152.5
x + y = 22 (1)
5.5x + 9y = 152.5 (2)
y = 22 - x
5.5x + 9(22 - x) = 152.5
5.5x + 198 - 9x = 152.5
-3.5x = 152.5 - 198
-3.5x = -45.5
x = 13
y = 22 - 13 = 9
