Answer:
23 child tickets were sold
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the information given, we can set up an equation to solve for the number of child tickets sold. Since there were three times as many adult tickets as child tickets sold, we can assign the variable 'x' to represent the number of child tickets and '3x' to represent the number of adult tickets. Since we know the cost of each ticket, as well as the total sales, we can set up the following equation:
5.20x + 9.70(3x) = 788.90
Simplify 5.20x + 29.1x = 788.90
Combine like terms: 34.3x = 788.90
Divide both sides by 34.3: x = 23 child tickets
C. 0.0031
6.2 divided by 2,000 = 0.0031

Explanation:</h3>
In the graph x-coordinate represents the number of wind chimes sold and y-coordinate represents the profit Madison earned. If a point is below the x-axis, means it has negative y-coordinate than it represents loss. Points above x-axis should have x-coordinate more than 6 as stated in the question that she started earning profit after selling her first 6 wind chimes. All the points having x-coordinate less than 6 should lie on or below the x-axis.
By the above statement point B is completely wrong. Point C and Point A are also wrong as they both x-coordinate more than 6 but still they are below x-axis.
Point D is the makes most sense here as it has x-coordinate more than 6 and it is above x-axis. This means that when Madison sold 7 wind chimes she was in a profit of $3.75.
