Question

1. Tickets to a football game are $5.00 for adults and $3.00 for students. The total

ticket sales were $630. How many adults and students attended the game if
50% of the sales were adults and 50% of the sales were students?

Answer 1

Answer:Answer:

x = 250

Step-by-step explanation: Let x = number of $3 tickets

Let y = number of $2 tickets

Total = quantity × value

x + y = 350 (equation 1)

3x + 2y = 950 (equation 2)

x = 350 – y (equation 3)

3(350 – y) + 2y = 950

1050 – 3y + 2y = 950

3y – 2y = 1050 – 950

y = 100

x + 100 = 350

x = 250
