A. a + c = 90 8a + 5c = 525
B. a + c = 525 8a + 5c = 90
C. a + c = 90 5a + 8C = 525

Answer: A

Step-by-step explanation:

I had this question on my test yesterday lol

The system of equation will be ". a + c = 90 8a + 5c = 525"

Let the number of adults tickets be represented by a

Let the number of children tickets be represented by c.

Since 90 total tickets were sold, this can be represented by the equation:

a + c = 90

Since adult movie tickets cost $8 each while the children pay $5 for a ticket, and total cost spent is $525, this will be:

8a + 5c = 525

Therefore, the correct option is A.
