A + c = 824 represents number of tickets to sell
20a + 12c = 13,344 represents cost of each type of ticket
multiply equation 1 by -12 to cancel the variable 'c' and solve for 'a'
-12(a + c = 824)
-12a - 12c = - 9888
20a + 12c = 13,344 add equations together
-----------------------------
8a = 3456 divide both sides by 8
a = 432
To find children's tickets substitute adult numbers back into equation 1.
a + c = 824
432 + c = 824
subtract 432 from both sides
c = 392
adult 432, children 392
Median is half of add the sum ofthe base and first side
17+5x-14=3+5x
divide it by 2
3+5x ÷2=median
(3+5x)/2=x+12
3+5x=2x+24
3x=21
x=7
Answer is D=7

The answer is solve to fill up the blank.
Hope this helps!
The answer would be C) because there are 11 possibilities of who can line up first, and after the first person, 10 possibilities, then 9, and so on. So you would need to multiply 11x10x9x8x...x1.
