Answer 1

So to solve this question you need to look at the wording. It says Brienne and her three friends so that means there are 4 people. And they spent a total of 27 dollars so the equation will be equal to 27. To figure out how much each person spent, you need a variable so the answer should be 4t=27

Answer 2

it's B because brienne AND 3 friends bought tickets, so there's 4 of them
