True or False question, I would say that it's true.
Answer: Cost of tickets for adults = $22
Cost of tickets for children = $15
Total number of tickets sold = 732
Total receipts = $12,912
Let x be number of adult ticket's sold and y be the number of child ticket's sold.
Therefore, we have:
--------------- equation 1
Also, we have:
Now, let's substitute the value of x:
Now, let's substitute the value of y=456 in equation 1, we have:
Therefore, the number of child ticket's sold is 456 and number of adult ticket's sold is 276
