Question

A drama club earns $1040 from a production. A total of 64 adult tickets and and 132 student tickets are sold. An adult ticket costs twice as much as a student ticket. • write a system of linear equations that represents this situation. • what is the cost of each ticket?

Answer 1

64(2T)+132(T)=1040
128T+132T=1040
260T=1040   i used T instead of x for ticket and then you divide so student should be 4 and then multiply 2T and Adult ticket is 8
