jordyn sold 700 tickets totaling $15340. if the ticket were $25 adults and $15 students, how many of each ticket did jordyn sell?
let x=number of adult tickets sold
700-x=number of student tickets sold
..
25x+15(700-x)=15340
25x+10500-15x=15340
10x=15340-10500=4840
x=484
700-x=216
number of adult tickets sold=484
number of student tickets sold=216
