Question

At a college production of a​ play, 300300 tickets were sold. the ticket prices were​ $8, $10, and​ $12, and the total income from ticket sales was ​$26802680. how many tickets of each type were sold if the combined number of​ $8 and​ $10 tickets sold was 55 times the number of​ $12 tickets​ sold?

Answer 1

(8t + 10t) + 55*12t= 300300

18t + 660t = 300300

t = 442.920354

time that number by each ticket type( do not round up). That'll give you each type of tickets sold.

8*442.920354 = 3543.36283

10*442.920354 = 4429.20354

55 *(12*442.920354) = 292327.434

if you add them up = 300300
