Question

Solve the problem

Answer 1

Answer:

11,000 paid $14 for reserved seats.

25,000 paid $6 for general admission.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to establish the system of equations:

x= number of people that pay $14

y= number of people that pay $6

14*x + 6*y= $304,000

x + y= 36,000

Now, we isolate x in one equation and substitute it in the other one:

x= 36,000 - y

14*(36,000 - y) + 6y = 304,000

504,000 - 8y = 304,000

200,000 = 8y

25,000 = y

x= 36,000 - 25,000

x= 11,000

11,000 paid $14 for reserved seats.

25,000 paid $6 for general admission.
