7.5a+3c=663
a+c=113

Write a literal equation for c using the second equation.
c=-a+113

Substitute the value of c into the first equation
7.5a+3(-a+113)= 663
7.5a-3a+339=663
4.5a+339=663
4.5a=324
a=72

Final answer: 72 adult tickets sold

Check by finding the value of c and plugging both values in
(72)+c=113
c=41

7.5(72)+3(41)
663
True

VashaNatasha [74]
$1,800 (10%) = $180 
jay pays 10% of the expenses beyond the deductible so you multiply the amount beyond the deductible by 10%.
$1,800 - $180 = $1,620 
or
$1,800 (90%) = $1,620
you subtract what jay pays from the total or you multiply the total by 90%

jay pays $180 of the expenses past the deductible (not including his $200 deductible) and his insurance company pays $1,620.
