Answer:
adult tickets = 17, children tickets = 9
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the number of children and y the number of adults
Then given that 26 tickets are sold, we can write
x + y = 26 → (1)
Given that ticket cost was $194 we can write
5.5x + 8.5y = 194 → (2)
Rearrange (1) expressing y in terms of x by subtracting x from both sides
y = 26 - x → (3)
Substitute y = 26 - x into (2)
5.5x + 8.5(26 - x) = 194 ← distribute and simplify left side
5.5x + 221 - 8.5x = 194
- 3x + 221 = 194 ( subtract 221 from both sides )
- 3x = - 27 ( divide both sides by - 3 )
x = 9
Substitute x = 9 into (3) for corresponding value of y
y = 26 - 9 = 17
Hence number of adult tickets sold = 17
number of children tickets sold = 9

Answer:
3/4 gallons of juice
Step-by-step explanation:
Katie bought 2 one-gallon bottles for a party.
2 one-gallon bottles = 2-gallon bottles of juice
We are told that:
Her guest drank 5/4 gallons of juice.
The fraction of juice leftover is calculated as:
2 gallons of juice - 5/4 gallons of juice
2 - 5/4
Lowest Common Denominator = 4
2/1 - 5/4
= 8 - 5/4
= 3/4 gallons of juice
Therefore, the fraction of juice leftover is 3/4 gallons of juice
