Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

10.5a + 3.75b = 2071.50

b = 82 students

Substitute 'b' value in the equation

10.5a + 3.75 * 82 = 2071.50

10.5a + 307.5 = 2071.50

10.5a = 2071.50 - 307.5

10.5a = 1764

Divide both sides by 10.5

a = 1764/10.5

a =17640/105

a= 168

168 adult tickets were sold
