133 adult tickets were sold.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Total tickets sold for school play = 399

Let,

x represent the number of children tickets sold.

y represent the number of adult tickets sold.

According to given statement;

x+y=399      Eqn 1

x = 2y           Eqn 2

Putting value of x from Eqn 2 in Eqn 1

2y+y=399\\3y=399

Dividing both sides by 3

\frac{3y}{3}=\frac{399}{3}\\y=133

133 adult tickets were sold.

How Do You Do This ? Please show work .

So basically you are going to line up your equations (already done). Next, you will just add each term. So x + 3x = 4x, then 2y - 2y = 0 (we wouldn't put anything) then 7 - 3 = 4
So then we have all of our terms figured out and will have 4x = 4 then divide 4x by 4 to get x alone and then you will also divide the four that is by itself by four to equal one. So, your answer is x = 1. I hope that helps!
