-2x + 6y = 6
6y - 6 = 2x
6(y-1) = 2x
(1/2) * 6(y-1) = 2x * (1/2)
x = 3(y-1)
------------
If, x = 3(y-1),
-7 * 3(y-1) + 8y = -5
-21 * (y-1) + 8y = -5
-21y + 21 + 8y = -5
21 + 5 = 21y - 8y
26 = 13y
y = 26/13
Therefore: y=2.
----------
If y=2,
x = 3(2-1) = 3

Answer:
2.50t + 350 = 3t + 225
Step-by-step explanation:
Let t represent the number of tickets that each class needs to sell so that the total amount raised is the same for both classes.
One class is selling tickets for $2.50 each and has already raised $350. This means that the total amount that would be raised from selling t tickets is
2.5t + 350
The other class is selling tickets for $3.00 each and has already raised $225. This means that the total amount that would be raised from selling t tickets is
3t + 225
Therefore, for the total costs to be the same, the number of tickets would be
2.5t + 350 = 3t + 225
Answer:
