Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
<em>Identify</em>
5a - 10b = 45
<em>b</em> = 3
<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>a</u></em>
- Substitute in <em>b</em> [Equation]: 5a - 10(3) = 45
- Multiply: 5a - 30 = 45
- [Addition Property of Equality] Add 30 on both sides: 5a = 75
- [Division Property of Equality] Divide 5 on both sides: a = 15
Let x = number of adult tickets, and y = number of children tickets. One equation must deal with the number of tickets, and the other equation must deal with the revenue from the tickets.
Then x + y = 300 is the number of tickets
12x + 8y = 3280 is the revenue from the tickets.
Using the substitution method:
x + y = 300 ⇒ y = 300 - x ⇒ Equation (3)
12x + 8y = 3280 ⇒ 12x + 8(300-x) = 3280 ⇒ x = 220
y = 300 - x ⇒ y = 300-220 ⇒ 80
Therefore 220 adult tickets and 80 children's tickets were sold.
