I need help with this ASAP and can you explain so i can understand?!

Answer 1

Answer: 225 adult tickets, 375 student tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

a = adult tickets

s = student tickets

a + s = 600 (the adult and student ticket added together should equal 600)

6.00a + 4.50s = 3,037.50 ($6 multiply by the adult ticket plus $4.50 multiply by the student ticket should equal to 3,037.50)

a = -s + 600 (get one of the variable by itself by subtracting it from one side)

6 (-s + 600) + 4.5s = 3,037.5 (substitute the a for -s + 600)

-6s + 3600 + 4.5s = 3,037.5 (combine like terms)

-1.5s + 3600 = 3,037.5 (subtract 3600 from each side)

-1.5s = - 562.5 (divide -1.5 from each side)

s = 375

600 = 375 + a (substitute s for 375)

a = 225
