You sell tickets for admission to your school play and collect a total of $104. Admission prices are $6 for adults and $4 for children. You sold 21 tickets. How many adult tickets and how many children tickets did you sell?
let the number of adult tickets sold be x
number of children tickest = 21-x
6x+4(21-x)= 104
6x+84-4x=104
2x= 20
x=20/2
x=10 the number of adult tickets
21-10 = 11 will be the number of children tickets
