------------------------------------------
Define adult and student tickets
------------------------------------------
Let the number of adult tickets be x
Adult tickets = x
Student tickets = x + 69


------------------------------------------
Form equation and solve for x
------------------------------------------
x + x + 69 = 569         
2x + 69 = 569              ← Combine like terms
2x = 569 - 69               ← Subtract 69 from both sides
2x = 500
x = 250                         ← Divide by 2 to find x

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Find the number of adult tickets and student tickets
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Adult tickets = x = 250
Student tickets = x + 69 = 319

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Answer: Adult tickets = 250 ; Student tickets = 319
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
