okay thanks @waterineyes

Answer 13

Let the total child tickets sold are \(x\) and total adult tickets sold are : \(y\)..

Answer 14

okay @waterineyes

Answer 15

if you need help with any other math problems feel free to tag me :)

Answer 16

One child ticket costs \(5.10\), so \(x\) tickets will cost : \(5.10x\)..
likewise one adult ticket costs \(8.20\), so \(y\) tickets will cost : \(8.20y\)

Answer 17

Need not to tag me everytime, I am here with you only.. :)

Answer 18

hahah okay sorry about that

Answer 19

i have a question do i have to solve for c or solve for a?

Answer 20

the equation is 5.10c+8.20a=1364.40

Answer 21

Oh wow..

Answer 22

we require c..

Answer 23

I am taking time to decode this line:

Four times as many adult tickets as child tickets were sold..

Answer 24

This means : \(4a = c\)

Answer 25

adult tickets sold were \(a\), so 4 times a = child tickets sold : So \(4 \times a = c\)

Answer 26

Getting?

Answer 27

kind of

Answer 28

meaning NOT.. :)

Answer 29

Decode that typical English line..

Answer 30

4 times means : \(4 \times\)

Answer 31

as many adults as : meaning how many adults were there, as we have let them as \(a\), so \(a\) were the number of adults..
as many child : \(c\) there..

Answer 32

In simple English that line means:

Suppose there were \(4\) adults, then 4 times these adults are the childre who were there.

Answer 33

So: \(4 \times 4 adults = 16 Children\)

Answer 34

Have you gone to visit Museum??

Answer 35

museum?

Answer 36

yes..

Answer 37

lol umm yeashhh i have

Answer 38

There, children go more or adults?

Answer 39

children

Answer 40

That is why : 4 times adults = children..

Answer 41

If adults will be 2, children there will be 4 times ie 8..

Answer 42

So: \(4a = c\)

Answer 43

And your first equation was:

\(5.10c + 8.20a = 1364.40\)

Answer 44

Are you able to solve both now?

Answer 45

no im really confused
