Tickets to a movie cost $9.00 for adults and $5.50 for students. There were 150 tickets purchased for a total of $1,105.00. The following system of
equations models the situation, where a is the number of adult tickets purchased and s is the number of student tickets purchased. Write the
terms with the variables in alphabetical order.
9a + 5.5s = 1.105
a +5 = 150
Rewrite the second equation in the system so that the variable for the number of adult tickets purchased can be eliminated by subtraction.
