Answer: the number of adult and student tickets sold are (45, 29)
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of adult tickets that were sold.
Let y represent the number of student tickets that were sold.
On Wednesday, a total of 74 tickets were sold. This means that
x + y = 74
x = 74 - y- - - - - - - - - - - - - - 1
If adult tickets are sold for $15 and student tickets are sold for $11 and the money collected was $994, it means that
15x + 11y = 994- - - - - - - - - - - - - - 2
Substituting equation 1 into equation 2, it becomes
15(74 - y) + 11y = 994
1110 - 15y + 11y = 994
- 15y + 11y = 994 - 1110
- 4y = - 116
y = - 116/ - 4
y = 29
Substituting y = 29 into equation 1, it becomes
x = 74 - 29 = 45
Step 1: Line up the equations so that the variables are lined up vertically.
Step 2: Choose the easiest variable to eliminate and multiply both equations by different numbers so that the coefficients of that variable are the same.
Step 3: Subtract the two equations.
Step 4: Solve the one variable system.
Step 5: Put that value back into either equation to find the other equation.
Step 6: Reread the question and plug your answers back in to check.
