Question

A movie theater charges $12 for an adult ticket and $7 for a children's ticket. for one showing of a movie, the theater sells 105 tickets total and makes $945 from ticket sales. let x be the number of adult tickets sold, and let y be the number of children's tickets sold for this movie. what are the values of x and y?

Answer 1

the equations would be x + y = 105 and 12x + 7y = 945 then you could either do substitution or elimination or graphing to find the values of x and y
