X adult tickets are sold, 130 - X child tickets are sold
\n" ); document.write( "10X + 5(130 - X) = 1050
\n" ); document.write( "10X + 650 - 5X = 1050
\n" ); document.write( "5X = 400
\n" ); document.write( "X = 80
\n" ); document.write( "So 80 adult tickets and 50 child tickets are sold
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
