Answer:
512 student tickets.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be number of student tickets and y be number of adult tickets.
We have been given that at Friday's football game 1,294 tickets were sold. We can represent this information as:
We are also told that each student ticket costs $5.00, and each adult ticket costs $8.00 and 1,294 tickets were sold for a total amount of $8,816. We can represent this information as:
From equation (1) we will get,
Substituting this value in equation (2) we will get,
Therefore, 512 student tickets were purchased at Fridays football game.
You first subtract 1/5 from both sides
3/4-1/5 = 11/20
3/2x=11/20
now you multiply 2/3 on both sides since you have to get x
11/20 * 2/3
x = 11/30
2x3=6
3x2=6
6 divided by 2=3
6 divided by 3=2
