Answer:

The answer is the third choice.

Step-by-step explanation:

S + A = 530  Is telling us about the total number of tickets sold.  It has nothing to do with the cost of the tickets.

Since Student tickets cost 3, the 3 would go with the variable s for students and the 4 goes with the cost of adults so the a would go with 4.  This second equation is looking at the money brought it.  If we multiple the number of adults by 4 dollars and the students by 3 dollars we come up with the money that came in 1740.
