Answer: 12 child tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use system of equations to find how many child tickets were sold. Let's say x is adult and y is child.

Equation 1

5.25x+3.05y=498.6

This equation comes from the cost of tickets.

Equation 2

x+y=100

This equation comes from the number of tickets.

We can use elimination method to solve for y.

5.25x+3.05y=498.6

5.25x+5.25y=525

Now, we can subtract the equations for x to cancel out and to solve for y.

-2.2y=-26.4

y=12

Answer:

x = 0 1 -1 -2

y = -3 -4 -2 -1

Step-by-step explanation:

equation : 3y+9x = -9

when x = 1

3y+3x = -9

or, 3y + 3×1= -9

or, 3y+3=-9

or, 3y = -12

so, y = -4

Again

Let's suppose x as -1

3y+3x= -9

or, 3y+ 3×-1 = -9

or, 3y-3 = -9

or, 3y = -6

y = -2

Let's suppose x as -2 now,

3y+3x = -9

3y+3×-2 = -9

or, 3y-6 = -9

or, 3y = -3

so, y = -1
