Let x represent lower level tickets that cost $77

Let y represent upper level tickets that cost $99

Cost equation: 77x + 99y = 247,071

Tickets equation: x + y = 2615

Using the elimination method, multiply the second equation by -77:

77x + 99y = 247,071

-77x - 77y = -201,355

--> 22y = 45,716

--> y = 2,078

Now plug "y" into either equation and solve for "x". I chose the Tickets equation. x + y = 2615 → x = 2615 - y → x = 2615 - 2078 → x = 537

Answer: lower level = 537 tickets, upper level = 2078 tickets.

Let U = upper

Let L = lower

U + L = 2615

99U + 77L = 247071 You can make your life slightly easier by dividing this equation through by 11

9U + 7L =24461 Multiply the first equation by 7

7U + 7L = 2615 * 7

7U +7L = 18305

====================

Combine the 2 new equations

9U + 7L = 24461

<u>7U + 7L = 18305</u> Subtract

2U = 6156 Divide by 2

U = 6156 / 2

U = 3078

The Number of Upper Level Tickets sold was 3078

Midway through the fundraiser, Mrs Little, the sponsor, discovers a container of buttermilk in the back of the fridge. It has 6
solong [7]

Answer: 6 recipes

Step-by-step explanation: Just divide the 6 cups of buttermilk by 7/8 because each recipe need 7/8 cup of butter milk. You will get a number like this 6.857142857142857 (there are probably more decimals that come after it.) But, all the numbers after the 6 are useless because more recipes can't be made with those because you need at least 7/8  cups for one recipe. So, this will make 6 recipes. Hope this helps!
