document.write( "Question 547367: Please help I am struggling with the last portion of this where I need to use the equation the number of regular admissions sold was 10 more than twice the number of child tickets sold. This is the question. 210 people attended a school carnival. The total dollars earned at the carnival was $710. Tickets for regular admission were $5, student tickets were $3, and children under 5 were $1. The number of regular admissions sold was 10 more than twice the number of child tickets sold. How many of each type of ticket were sold? So far I got two equations: $\"+x%2By%2Bz=210+\"$ and $\"+5x%2B3y%2B1z=710\"$ . But I can't for the life of me figure out the final equation. Please help as soon as possible. \n" ); document.write( "
