At the movie theatre, child admission is $5.30 and adult admission is $8.40. On Wednesday, three times as many adult tickets as
aleksley [76]

Answer:

39

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = number of child tickets sold.

Cost of x child tickets is x * 5.30 = 5.3x.

"three times as many adult tickets as child tickets were sold"

Number of adult tickets sold: 3x

Cost of 3x adult tickets is 3x * 8.40 = 25.2x

Cost of all tickets is 5.3x + 25.2x = 30.5x

Cost of all tickets is $1189.50

30.5x = 1189.5

x = 1189.5/30.5

x = 39
