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.

Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer: her call lasted for 26 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of minutes for which her call lasted.

Rachel purchased a prepaid phone card for $30. Long distance calls cost 6 cents a minute using this card. Converting 6 cents to dollars, it becomes 6/100 = $0.06

This means that the cost of x minutes of long distance call is

0.06 × x = $0.06x.

If the remaining credit on her card is $28.44, it means that

0.06x + 28.44 = 30

0.06x = 30 - 28.44

0.06x = 1.56

x = 1.56/0.06

x = 26
