At a club play , 117 tickets were sold Adults~ tickets cost $1.25,and children~s tickets cost $0.75.in all,$129.75 was taken in.How many of each kind of tickets were sold ?
***
let x=number of adult tickets sold
let y=number of children tickets sold
x+y=117
y=117-x
..
1.25x+.75y=129.75
1.25x+.75(117-x)=129.75
1.25x+87.75-.75x=129.75
.50x=42
x=84
y=117-84=33
number of adult tickets sold=84
number of children tickets sold=33
