Question 1081264: A jazz concert brought in $165,500 on the sale of 8,100 tickets. If the tickets sold for $15 and $25 each, how many of each type of ticket were sold? Answer by jorel1380(3719) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Let n and 8100-n be the amount of $15 and $25 tickets sold, respectively. Then:
15n+25(8100-n)=165500
10n=37000
n=3700 $15 tickets sold;4400 $25 tickets sold. ☺☺☺☺
