Question

Someone please help me!!!

Advance tickets for a school play went on sale. The price of each student ticket was $4 and everyone else paid $5. On the first day, no more than $80 in tickets were sold. Describe and explain the possible values of s, the number of student tickets sold, and e, the number of tickets sold to nonstudents.

Answer 1

the equation would be 80=4s=5e s is students, student tickets cost 4$ and e is nonstudents and there tickets cost 5$ and 80$ is how much they got so s would multiply 4 to get the amount they got from in school students and e times 5 to get out of school people then they would add for an all out amount of 80$ which is what the school received

Answer 2

I think the answer is 20 but I'm not sure
