337 were senior citizens.

What is the system of equations?

A system of equations, also known as an equation system or a set of simultaneous equations, is a finite set of equations for which common solutions are sought.

Here, we

Let

x = the number of adult tickets sold

y = the number of senior tickets sold

483 people paid admission => a total of 483 tickets were sold and

x + y = 483

the total receipts were $7548

24x + 12y = 7548

by solving the system of equations

x + y = 483....(1)

24x + 12y = 7548....(2)

From equation (1), we get

x = 483-y....(3)

Now, we put the value of x in equation (2) and we get

24(483 - y) +12y = 7548

11592 - 24y + 12y = 7548

12y = 4044

y = 337

Now, we put the value of y in equation (1) and we get

x = 483 - 337

x = 146

Hence, 337 were senior citizens.

Lisa [10]

Answer:

100% = 30. There are 30 students in Mr.Fulton's class

Step-by-step explanation:

If we have 12 as 40%, we divide it by 2 to get the base value which is 6=20%.

Now we multiply the base by 5 so 20% x 5= 100% and 6 x 5 equals 30. so 100% = 30
