Answer:

210 adult tickets were sold

Step-by-step explanation:

let x be the number of adult tickets sold

let y be the number of children tickets sold

x+y=260 equation 1

9x+5y=2140 equation 2

multiply equation 1 by 5

multiply equation 2 by 1

5x+5y=1300

9x+5y=2140

subtract equation 1 from 2

4x=840

x=840/4 =210  tickets

substitute for x in equation 1

210+y=260

y=260-210=50

(x -1) = 26 = -4x <br> A. -7 5/7<br> B. 8<br> C. -7<br> D. -5
Volgvan
Based on the answer choices, we suspect you intend
.. (x -1) +26 = -4x

This simplifies to
.. x +25 = -4x
.. 25 = -5x . . . . . subtract x
.. -5 = x . . . . . . . divide by the coefficient of x

Selection D appears to be appropriate for the question we think you asked.
