ivolga24 [154]

Answer:

455 adult tickets
884 student tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

5a + 1(1339-a) = 3159

4a = 1820 . . . . . . subtract 1339, collect terms

a = 455 . . . . . . . . divide by 4; adult tickets sold

(1339-a) = 884 . . . . student tickets sold

455 adult tickets and 884 student tickets were sold.
