Question

Ninety tickets were sold by our school for the band fest. a tickets were sold for $3.00 each and b tickets were sold for $4.00 each. If the total sales on all tickets amounted to $300.00, how many of each tickets were sold?

Answer 1

Answer: 60= $3.00 and 30= $4.00

x=# of $3 tickets

90-x=# of $4 tickets

$3x+$4(90-x)=$300

3x+360-4x=300

-x+360=300

-x=-360+300

-x=-60

x=60 $3 tickets

90-60=30 $4 tickets
