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.

Fourteen less children’s meals were served than adult meals at a barbecue. Children plate were 1.50 each and adult plates were 2
Annette [7]

Answer:

134 children and 120 adult plates were served

Step-by-step explanation:

let the children mean be x

Let the adult meal be y

If fourteen less children’s meals were served than adult meals at a barbecue, then;

y = x - 14 .... 1

IF Children plate were 1.50 each and adult plates were 2.00 each with a total of 441 in amount then;

1.5x + 2y = 441 .... 2

Substitute 1 into 2;

1.5x + 2(x-14) = 441

1.5x+2x-28 = 441

3.5x = 441+28

3.5x = 469

x = 469/3.5

x = 134

Recall that y = x - 14

y = 134-14

y = 120

Hence 134 children and 120 adult plates were served
