Answer:

230 tickets were sold at door and 170 tickets were sold in advance.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of tickets sold at the door.

Let y be the tickets sold in advance.

Equations form as per given scenario are:

x+y=400 or x=400-y       ......(1)

3x+2y=1030      ......(2)

Substituting the value of x from (1) in (2)

3(400-y)+2y=1030

=> 1200-3y+2y=1030

=> 1200-1030=3y-2y

We get y = 170

And x = 400-170 = 230

Hence, 230 tickets were sold at door and 170 tickets were sold in advance.

*i dont know if this is the proper way to do it but it has the correct answer

x=at door y=in advance

x+y=400

3x+2y=1030

y=-x+400

2y=-3x+1030

y=-3/2x+515

-x+400=-3/2x+515

x=230 y=170
