Answer:

36x + 24y = 423 (1)

41x + 38y = 585.75 (2)

x =$5.25

y = $9.75

Step-by-step explanation:

x = the number of student tickets sold

y = the number of adult tickets sold

36x + 24y = 423 (1)

41x + 38y = 585.75 (2)

Multiply (1) by 38 and (2) by 24

1368x + 912y = 16,074 (3)

984x + 912y = 14,058 (4)

Subtract to eliminate y

1,368x - 984x = 16,074 - 14,058

384x = 2,016

x = 2,016/384

x = 5.25

Substitute x = 5.25 into (1) to find y

36x + 24y = 423

36(5.25) + 24y = 423

189 + 24y = 423

24y = 423 - 189

24y = 234

y = 234/24

y = 9.75

x =$5.25

y = $9.75
