Answer:

Explanation:

Given that the sophomore class sold a total of 700 adult and student tickets to the school play. adult tickets sold for $4.50 each, and student tickets cost $2.00 each.

Total = 1200

x, the number of student tickets sold, and y, the number of adult tickets sold

Then we have


x+y =700\\4.5x+2y = 1200

These are the system to solve for x
