She sprinted 144 ft. There are 3 ft. In one yard so take 48 times 3 to get 144
Adults = x
Students = y = x + 40. 40 more student than adult
Adult = $8, Student = $6
Total for Adults = 8*x = 8x
<span>Total for students = 6*y = 6y
</span>
Total = $1920
8x + 6y = 1920
Hence system of equations are:
<span>y = x + 40
</span>
<span>8x + 6y = 1920</span>

Answer:
5/9
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the denominator be k and thus numerator be 4 less than k or k - 4.
Fraction = (k - 4)/k
If 5 is added to both:
=> (k-4 + 5)/(k + 5) = 5/7
=> 7(k + 1) = 5(k + 5)
=> 7k + 7 = 5k + 25
=> 2k = 18
=> k = 9
Thus,
Fraction is (k-4)/k = (9-4)/9 = 5/9
