Number of child tickets: x
Number of adult tickets: y

1) x+y=370
2) 3x+7y=1750

Using the method of substitution
a) Isolating y in the first equation:
1) x+y=370→x+y-x=370-x→y=370-x

b) Replacing y=370-x in the second equation:
2) 3x+7y=1750→3x+7(370-x)=1750

c) Solving for x: Distributive property:
3x+7(370)-7x=1750
3x+2590-7x=1750

Adding similar terms:
-4x+2590=1750

-4x+2590-2590=1750-2590
-4x=-840

Dividing both sides of the equation by -4:
-4x/(-4)=-840/(-4)
x=210

Replacing x=210 in the first equation:
1) y=370-x→y=370-210→y=160

Answer:
The number of child tickets was 210 and
the number of adult tickets was 160

Correlation coefficient is the numerical representation of how one variable predicts the change of the other. In this case, if the AP tests scores and the SAT scores have 0.93 correlation coefficient, this means that the two results move in the same direction. When AP test results go up, then we can say that SAT scores will go up too, same also if one goes down, so does the other.
