X= number of student tickets
Y= number of on student tickets
x+y=311
0.50x + 1.50y = 385.50
Solve x in 1st equation
X+y=311
X= -y + 311
Now substitute x into second equation to solve for y
0.50(-y+311)+ 1.50y = 385.50
-0.50y+311.50+1.50y=385.50
Y+311.50=385.50
Y= 385.50-311.50
Y= 74
Now substitute y answer to first equation to find x
X+y=311
X+ 74=311
X= 311-74
X= 237
So 237 students tickets and 74 non students tickets

switch sides

solve factoring

using the zero factor principle

Answer:
+$90;
$1,600
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation,
, given to us tells us much about the situation described above.
y = total pay
x = number of copies of Math is fun
1600 = y-intercept, that is the starting value or the pay he gets only if Sam sold 0 copy of Math is fun. That is, when x = 0, y = 1,600.
90 = unit rate or the change in the total pay for each copy of Math is fun that Sam sells.
Therefore, our answers would be:
+$90, and $1,600
