Answer:

5x + 2y = 3280

x+y = 785

x = 785 - y

5*(785 - y) + 2y = 3280

3925 - 5y + 2y = 3280

3925 - 3280 - 3y = 0

645 = 3y

y=645/3=215

x=785-215 = 570

Adults - 570 tickets, childs - 215 tickets.

570*5 + 215*2 = 3280

570 adult and 215 child and 3,280 in total

if i could get brainliest that would be great
