$8 ticket x
\n" ); document.write( "$12 ticket y
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "1x+1y=343 .............1
\n" ); document.write( "8x+12y= 3576 .............2
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "multiply (1)by -12
\n" ); document.write( "Multiply (2) by 1
\n" ); document.write( "-12x-12 y=-4116
\n" ); document.write( "8x+12y= 3576
\n" ); document.write( "Add the two equations
\n" ); document.write( "-4x= -540
\n" ); document.write( "/-4
\n" ); document.write( "x=135 $8 tickets
\n" ); document.write( "y= 208 $12 tickets
\n" ); document.write( "
