A total of 765 tickets were sold for the school play. They were either adults or students tickets. There were 65 more student ti ckets sold than adult tickets. How many adult tickets were sold?
1 answer:
Answer: 350 adult tickets
Step-by-step explanation:
(omg I remember this question!)
a stands for the number of adult tickets sold student tickets : a + 65
<em>the equation for the prob: </em>
765 = a + (a + 65)
<em>solve:</em>
combine 'like terms'
1.) 765 = a + a + 65
2.) 765 = 2a + 65
<u>- 65 - 65 </u>
700= 2a
divide by 2
700/2 = 2a/2
<em>(700/2 = 350) </em>
<em>(the "2" in 2a is cancelled out by the other 2) </em>
<u>350 = a </u>

It is an inverse relationship. There is enough food for 156*125=19500 person-days. If the food can last (125+70)=195 days, there are 19500 person-days / (195 days) = 100 persons
