Answer:

Option d

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that 52,000 fans can fit into the stadium.

Then the amount of tickets that can be sold must equal 52,000.

If we call H the number of tickets for the home team and call V the number of tickets for the visiting team, then:

[tex]H + V = 52,000[/tex]

Then, we know that the local team has 5 times more fans than the visiting team. So we can write that:

[tex]H = 5V\\H-5V = 0[/tex]

Finally, the system of equations sought is:

[tex]H - 5V = 0\\H + V = 52 000[/tex]
