d. 26 adult tickets; 44 child tickets

C. 28 adult tickets; 42 child tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = Number of child ticket

y= Number of adult tickets

As per given , we have the following system of linear equations :

Multiplying 8 on both sides of equation (1), we get

Subtract (3) from (2) , we get

Put value of y in (1)  , we get

Hence, the correct answer is

C. 28 adult tickets; 42 child tickets

1)is not similar since corresponding sides are not in the same ratio

2)are similar since corresponding sides are in the same ratio and corresponding angles are equal

hope it will
