x the number of $80 rooms
80x + 60(150-x) = 10,000
x = (10,000 - 9,000) / 20 = 50, $80 rooms and 100 $60 rooms
And..checking
$4000 + $6000 = $10,000

x+y=150,
80*x+60*y=10000
x=150-y
80*(150-y)+60*y=10000
12000-80y+60*y=10000
-20*y=-2000
y=100
x=150-y
x=50 rooms at $80 ($4000) and y=100 rooms at $60 ($6000)
check
50+100=150
80*x+60*y=10000
80*50+60*100=10000
4000+6000=10000
10000=10000
