Answer:

140 child tickets were sold

Step-by-step explanation:

a = number of adult tickets

c = number of child tickets

a+c = 350

6.50 c + 8.50a = 2695

Multiply the first equation by -8.50 together

-8.50c  -8.50c =-2975

Add this to the second equation to eliminate a

-8.50c  -8.50c =-2975

6.50 c + 8.50a = 2695

---------------------------------

-2c   + 0a = -280

Divide by -2

-2c/-2 = -280/-2

c = 140
