Answer:

132 people bought balcony tickets and 450 bout ground tickets

Explanation:

let x be balcony and y for ground

x+y=582

15x+10y=6480 solve by adding(subtracting)/eliminating process

multiply first equation by 15 to eliminate x:

15x+15y=8730

15x+10y=6480 subtract

15x+15y-15x-10y=8730-6480

5y=2250

y=2250/5=450

x+y=582

x=582-450=132
