Answer: Person A generates $107.9 million and person B generates $85.3 million.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x denotes the amount of money ( in million dollars) generate by person A and y denotes the amount of money ( in million dollars) generate by person B.
Given : In a recent year, person A and person B had two concert tours, and together they generated $193.2 million in ticket sales.
i.e. [tex]x+y=193.2--------(1)[/tex]
If person B took in $22.6 million less than person A, then
[tex]x-y=22.6---------------(2)[/tex]
Person A generates $107.9 million and person B generates $85.3 million.
dd (1) and (2), we get
[tex]2x=193.2+22.6\\\\\Rightarrow\ 2x=215.8\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=\dfrac{215.8}{2}=107.9[/tex]
[tex](107.9)+y=193.2\\\\\Rightarow\ y=193.2-107.9=85.3[/tex]
Hence, Person A generates $107.9 million and person B generates $85.3 million.
