Answer:

person A tour: $107.9 million

person B tour: $83.4 million

Step-by-step explanation:

If person A and person B together generated $191.3 million in ticket sales, we can write the equation:

X + Y = 191.3

Where X is the amount generated by A alone in millions and Y is the amount generated by B alone in millions.

If person B took in $24.5 million less than person A, we can write the equation:

Y = X - 24.5

So, we can use this expression for Y in the first equation to find the value of X:

X + (X - 24.5) = 191.3

2X = 191.3 + 24.5 = 215.8

X = 107.9

Then, we find the value of Y:

Y = X - 24.5 = 107.9 - 24.5 = 83.4

So, person A tour generated $107.9 million in ticket sales, and person B tour generated $83.4 million in ticket sales.

A businessman buys 1,440 dozen pens at $2.50 a dozen and then sells them at a price of 25¢ apiece. what is his total profit on th
Harlamova29_29 [7]
Profit (P) is calculated by subtracting the total cost (C) from the total revenue (R). The calculations are shown below, 

       R = (1440 dozens) x (12 pieces / 1 dozen) x (25 cents/ piece) = $4320
                   C = (1440 dozens) x ($2.50 / dozen) = $3600
 
                          Profit = R - C = $4320 - $3600 = $720

Thus, the businessman's profit is $720.
