Question

725 tickets were sold for a game for a total of $1325 if adult tickets were sold for $2.50 and children’s tickets sold for one dollar how many of each kind of ticket were sold

Answer 1

Explanation:

725 tickets were sold for $1325.

Number of Adult Tickets=X

Number of Children's Tickets=Y

2.50x+y=1325

x+y=725

Use the elimination method for systems of equations

1.5x=600 (Divide)

x=400

If there were 400 children's tickets sold, then there were 325 adult tickets.
