Ann and Sean, paid $208 for concert tickets. They bought twice as many balcony tickets as floor tickets. Balcony tickets cost $15 each and floor cost $22 each. How many of each type of ticket did they purchase ?
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Let x = number of floor tickets
\n" ); document.write( "then from \"They bought twice as many balcony tickets as floor tickets.\"
\n" ); document.write( "2x = number of balcony tickets
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Our equation comes from:
\n" ); document.write( "\"Balcony tickets cost $15 each and floor cost $22 each.\" and the fact that they paied $208:
\n" ); document.write( "15(2x) + 22x = 208
\n" ); document.write( "30x + 22x = 208
\n" ); document.write( "52x = 208
\n" ); document.write( "x = 4 (floor tickets)
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "balcony tickets:
\n" ); document.write( "2x = 2(4) = 8
\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
