Let
x =  the number of tickets sold at $27 each
y =  the number of tickets sold at $40 each

Because 5000 tickets were sold, therefore
x + y = 5000              (1)

Because the revenue generated was $158,400, therefore
27x + 40y = 158400      (2)

From (1),
y = 5000 - x          (3)

Substitute (3) into (2).
27x + 40(5000 - x) = 158400
-13x + 200000 = 158400
-13x = -41600
x = 3200
y = 5000 - x = 5000 - 3200 = 1800

Answer:
3200 tickets at $27 each, and
1800 tickets at $40 each

DENIUS [597]
In this question, there are a few kinds of the coin with a different value. To answer this question, we need to know the total coin first. The total coin count should be: 10 +20 + 15 +5= 50 coin

In this case, the coin is taken twice, that means the denominator should be 50*49. But in this question, the probablity value is 6/49, so you need to convert it into 50*49 by multiplying the numerator with 50. The value should be:
6/49 *50/50= 300/49*50
The number 300 is multiplication of 20 and 15, that mean the answer should be: 1 dimes and 1 nickles
