Answer: 8 orchestra seats and 6 mezzanine seats.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let be "o" the number of orchestra seats they bought and "m" the number of mezzanine seats they bought.
Set up a system of equations:
You can apply the Substittution Method to solve the system of equations:
1. Solve for "o" from the second equation:
2. Substitute it into the first equation and solve for "m":
3. Substitute the value of "m" into and evaluate, in order to find the value of "o". This is:
So when you're solving for x here and distribute 8 on the right side, it would look like this:
Now in order to solve for x, we know we have to get all the x's on one side of the equal sign. Let's get all our x's to the left side. Since the right side has a positive 8x, you need to subtract 8x on the right. But whatever you do to one side you must do to the other. So since we are subtracting 8x on the right, we need to do that on the left.
But we can't! Since both sides will cancel out to zero before x can be solved.
Therefore the answer is 0.
Hope that helps!
