X=number of adult tickets
y=number of child tickets
I suggest this system of equations:
x+y=144
9x+6y=1164
we can solve this system of equations by substitution method.
x=144-y

9(144-y)+6y=1164
1296-9y+6y=1164
-3y=1164-1296
-3y=-132
y=-132/-3=44

x=144-y
x=144-44=100

Answer: the theatre sold 100 adult tickets and 44 child tickets.
