Answer:

Students ticket = 125

Adults ticket = 425

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Student ticket = S

Adult ticket = A

A + S = 550 ..... (1)

The price for a student ticket was $12.50, and the price for an adult ticket was $16.00. The register confirms that $8,362.50 was taken in that is

16A + 12.5S = 8362.5 ...... (2)

Solve equation 1 and 2 simultaneously

A + S = 550

16A + 12.5S = 8362.5

Multiply S in equation 1 by 12.5

12.5A + 12.5S = 6875

16A + 12.5S = 8362.5

3.5A = 1487.5

A = 1487.5/3.5

A = 425 tickets

Substitute A in equation (1)

425 + S = 550

S = 550 - 425

S = 125 ticket

How do you solve this equation ?
nata0808 [166]
The first step to solving this is to solve the equation for x
x = - 21/5 - y
4x + 4y = -14
now,, substitute the given value of x into the equation "4x + 4y = -14"
4( - 21/5 - y) + 4y = -14
next,, solve the equation for y
y∈∅
since this system has no solution for y, your answer is (x,y)∈∅
