Answer:

210 adult tickets were sold

Step-by-step explanation:

let x be the number of adult tickets sold

let y be the number of children tickets sold

x+y=260 equation 1

9x+5y=2140 equation 2

multiply equation 1 by 5

multiply equation 2 by 1

5x+5y=1300

9x+5y=2140

subtract equation 1 from 2

4x=840

x=840/4 =210  tickets

substitute for x in equation 1

210+y=260

y=260-210=50

miles/hours
