There is a Saturday performance at a local theater. A theater charges $9 for an adult ticket and $4 for a child ticket. All 1020 tickets were sold and $7680 of revenue was brought in. How many adult tickets were sold?
2 answers:
Let x tickets sold be adults, then (1024-x) were of childrens tickets, 9x+(1024-x)4 = 7680. The above equation is for total money solve it you will get x=720 hence, number of adult tickets were 720 and number of child tickets were 300 :)
<span>x = # of $9 adult tickets
y = # of $4 child tickets
so
1) x + y =1020
2) 9x + 4y = 7680
solve by graphing, substitution, etc.,
(x, y) = (720, 300)</span>

This is the answer, hope this helps you
8.75 I think bc 1.50 x 4 = 6 then add 2.75 and you get $8.75
D. 34 and 56 degrees - when added together equal 90 degrees
X + y = 85 2x + 4y = 218 x = 85 - y <span>2(85 - y) + 4y = 218 </span> <span>170 - 2y + 4y = 218 </span> <span>170 + 2y = 218 </span> <span>2y = 48 </span> <span>y = 24 </span> <span>x = 61 </span>
