Question

Student tickets to the home coming game costs $5 each. General admission tickets cost $8 each. So far, 150 tickets have been sold. $900 has been collected.

1. Write a system of equations for this model in standard form.
2. What is the solution to the system?
3. Is (180,-30) a solution? Explain.

Answer 1

1. Equation #1: g+s=150
Equation #2: 8g +5s = 900

2. Solution to the system:
G = 150 – s
8(150-s)+5s=900
1200-8s+5s=900
-900 -900
300/3-3s/3

3. Idk about this one...
