Answer:
353 tickets.
Explanation:
Let's say that there are s student tickets and n nonstudent tickets.
s + n = 669
5s + 8n = 4293
Multiply -5 by the entire first equation to get...
-5s - 5n = -3345
Combine the two equations.
5s - 5s + 8n - 5n = 4293 - 3345
3n = 948
n = 316
Now, put the number of nonstudent tickets sold back into the first equation.
s + 316 = 669
s = 353 tickets.
Hope this helps!
