Question

The school purchased 35 tickets for the ballet. Adult tickets were $10, and student tickets were $7. The total cost was $266.

If x represents the number of adult tickets purchased, and y represents the number of student tickets purchased, which system of equations represents this situation?

Answer 1

Not too sure, but maybe this is what you need.

(Students = S, Adults = A) So, Ax + Sy = 266?

Or

x10 + y7 = $266

Explanation:

I think the second one is the most accurate one, ignore the first equation. T^T
