Its pretty simple
9x-7y = 22
x + 3y = -24
(9x-7y = 22)
-9(x + 3y = -24)
= -9x -27y = 216
+ 9x-7y = 22
= -34y = 238
= / -34 = 238/-34
y = -7
now plug -7 in one of the equation
x + 3(-7) = -24
x -21 = -24
+21. +21
x = -3
so answer is x = -3 and y = -7
Answer:
23 child tickets were sold
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the information given, we can set up an equation to solve for the number of child tickets sold. Since there were three times as many adult tickets as child tickets sold, we can assign the variable 'x' to represent the number of child tickets and '3x' to represent the number of adult tickets. Since we know the cost of each ticket, as well as the total sales, we can set up the following equation:
5.20x + 9.70(3x) = 788.90
Simplify 5.20x + 29.1x = 788.90
Combine like terms: 34.3x = 788.90
Divide both sides by 34.3: x = 23 child tickets
