Answer 1

The numbers of tickets in advanced sold was 260 and the numbers of tickets at the door sold was 65

Explanation:

Let

x ---> the numbers of tickets in advanced sold

y ---> the numbers of tickets at the door sold

we know that

325 tickets are sold

so

`x+y=325` ----> equation A

$1430 is collected

so

`4x+6y=1,430` ----> equation B

Solve the system of equations by graphing

Remember that the solution is the intersection point both graphs

using a graphing tool

The solution is the point (260,65)

see the attached figure

therefore

The numbers of tickets in advanced sold was 260 and the numbers of tickets at the door sold was 65
