Total tickets sold = 800
Total revenue = $3775
Ticket costs:
$3 per child,
$8 per adult,
$5 per senior citizen.
Of those who bought tickets, let
x = number of children
y = number of adults
z = senior citizens
Therefore
x + y + z = 800 (1)
3x + 8y + 5z = 3775 (2)
Twice as many children's tickets were sold as adults. Therefore
x = 2y (3)
Substitute (3) into (1) and (2).
2y + y + z = 800, or
3y + z = 800, or
z = 800 - 3y (4)
3(2y) + 8y + 5z = 3775, or
14y + 5z = 3775 (5)
Substtute (4) nto (5).
14y + 5(800 - 3y) = 3775
-y = -225
y = 225
From (4), obtain
z = 800 - 3y = 125
From (3), obtain
x = 2y = 450
Answer:
The number of tickets sold was:
450 children,
225 adults,
125 senior citizens.

Answer:
- 100 mL of 75% solution
- 150 mL of pure alcohol
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the quantity (in mL) of pure alcohol needed for the mix. Then the amount of 75% needed is (250-x). The amount of alcohol in the mixture is ...
1.00x +0.75(250 -x) = 0.90(250)
0.25x +187.5 = 225 . . simplify
0.25x = 37.5 . . . . . . . . subtract 187.5
x = 150 . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 0.25
(250 -x) = 100 . . . . mL of 75% solution
You need 100 mL of the 75% solution and 150 mL of pure alcohol to obtain the desired mixture.
