How many adult tickets were sold if each adult ticket sold was $6 and each student ticket was $4.50 and 260 tickets were sold fo
r a total of $1404?
1 answer:
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
