Answer:
$1431
Step-by-step explanation:
If Stan pays a 10% deposit, he pays $159. 10% of $1590 is simply 0.1 * 1590 = 159. Assuming this is the only amount he pays, he then simply needs to pay the full price minus $159. We can find this by simply subtracting 159 from 1590 to get 1431. Stan still needs to pay $1431.
Let x = number of adult tickets, and y = number of children tickets. One equation must deal with the number of tickets, and the other equation must deal with the revenue from the tickets.
Then x + y = 300 is the number of tickets
12x + 8y = 3280 is the revenue from the tickets.
Using the substitution method:
x + y = 300 ⇒ y = 300 - x ⇒ Equation (3)
12x + 8y = 3280 ⇒ 12x + 8(300-x) = 3280 ⇒ x = 220
y = 300 - x ⇒ y = 300-220 ⇒ 80
Therefore 220 adult tickets and 80 children's tickets were sold.
Integers are closed under subtraction.
