Answer:

   Adult tickets sold:   156

Step-by-step explanation:

   Adult ticket:   x

Student ticket:  y

x + y = 260                  ===>   -6(x + y = 260)     ===>  -6x -6y = -1560

6x + 4.5y = 1404         ===>                                           6x + 4.5y = 1404

                                                                                  ________________

add the two equations to eliminate a variable:                  -1.5y = -156

divide by -1.5:                                                                              y = 104

substitution to find x:

      x + y = 260

  x + 104 = 260

            x = 156
