Answer:
- 75 adult tickets
- 125 child tickets
Step-by-step explanation:
Let 'a' represent the number of adult tickets sold. Then (200-a) is the number of child tickets sold, and the revenue is ...
8a +5(200 -a) = 1225
3a = 225 . . . . . . . . . . subtract 1000, simplify
a = 75 . . . . . . . . . . . . .divide by 3
200 -a = 125
75 adult ($8) and 125 child ($5) tickets were sold.

<em>Additional comment</em>
The question asked here is "how many tickets did Kay sell?" The second line of your problem statement tells you the answer: "Kay sold 200 tickets ...". We have assumed that you are interested in the breakdown of tickets sold, even though that is not the question that is asked here.
Answer:
Number of children, x= 400
Number of adults, y = 100
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of children be x
Let the number of adults be y
Given : Total number of people, x + y = 500 --------(1)
Total amount collected, 5x + 10y = 3000 ---------(2)
(1) => y = 500 - x
Substitute y in (2) : 5x + 10(500 - x) = 3000
5x + 5000 - 10x = 3000
-5x = 3000 - 5000
-5x = -2000
x = 400
Substitute x in (1) : 400 + y = 500
y = 500 - 400
y = 100
