Answer:

g = 530. r = 364

Explanation:

Let g = number of general admission tickets

let r = reserved tickets

4.50g + 6r = 4569

g + r = 894

Multiply second equation by -6

-6g - 6r = -5364

Add to first equation

-6g - 6r = -5364

4.5g + 6r = 4569

-——————————

-1.5g = -795. Divide by -1.5

g = 530

Substitute into equation

530 + r = 894

r = 364
