Question

I need two linear equations representing the situation. The information is in the picture

Answer 1

`x - y = 14`

`x + y = 58`

Explanation:

x = Number of tickets

y = Number of tickets your friend sells

Together, you and your friend sell 58 tickets:
`x + y = 58`

You sell 14 more tickets than your friend:
`x = y + 14`
=
`x -y = 14`

∴System of linear equations:

`x - y = 14`….(equation i)

`x + y = 58`….(equation ii)
