Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x = advance and y = same day

x + y = 70.......x = 70 - y

30x + 25y = 1950

30(70 - y) + 25y = 1950

2100 - 30y + 25y = 1950

-5y = 1950 - 2100

-5y = - 150

y = -150/-5

y = 30 <===== there were 30 same day tickets

x + y = 70

x + 30 = 70

x = 70 - 30

x = 40 <==== there were 40 advance tickets
