Answer:

2 adult tickets

Explanation:

we have two relations


a + c = 5


9a + 4c = 30

first rearrange the top equality for one of the variables


a = 5 - c

now substitute into the second equation


9(5 - c) + 4c = 30

perform the distribution and combine like terms


45 - 9c + 4c = 30


45 - 5c = 30


- 5c = - 15


c = 3

place this 3 into our first equation and solve for a


a + (3) = 5


a = 2
