The price of a staff ticket and the price of a student ticket is $8 and $14

Given:

Day 1:

Number of staff tickets sold = 3

Number of students tickets sold = 1

Total revenue day 1 = $38

Day 2:

<em>Number of staff tickets sold</em> = 3

<em>Number of students tickets sold</em> = 2

<em>Total revenue day</em> 2 = $52

let

<em>cost of staff tickets</em> = x

<em>cost of students tickets</em> = y

The equation:

<em>3x + y = 38 (1)</em>

<em>3x + y = 38 (1)3x + 2y = 52 (2)</em>

subtract (1) from (2)

2y - y = 52 - 38

y = 14

substitute y = 14 into (1)

3x + y = 38 (1)

3x + 14 = 38

3x = 38 - 14

3x = 24

x = 24/3

x = 8

Therefore,

cost of staff tickets = x

= $8

cost of students tickets = y

= $14

<h2>Put x = \dfrac{39}{8} I write the sum of 6x and 2x is at least 39 .</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

We have,,

6x and 2x

To find, the value of x = ?

According to question,

The sum of 6x and 2x is at least 39

∴ The value of x = \dfrac{39}{8}

Thus, put x = \dfrac{39}{8} I write the sum of 6x and 2x is at least 39 .
