A theatre sells 200 tickets one day. The tickets are sold for $33. and $18. The total dollar amount collected for the one day is $4,800.
\n" ); document.write( "How do a write the equation for this problem and steps to solve?
\n" ); document.write( "x= $33. tickets
\n" ); document.write( "y= $18. tickets
\n" ); document.write( "x + y = 200 tickets
\n" ); document.write( "33x + 18y = 4,800.
\n" ); document.write( "----------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Multiply thru the 1st equation by 33:
\n" ); document.write( "33x + 33y = 33*200
\n" ); document.write( "33x + 18y = 4800
\n" ); document.write( "-------
\n" ); document.write( "Subtract and solve for \"y\":
\n" ); document.write( "15y = 1800
\n" ); document.write( "y = 120 (# of $18 tickets sold)
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "Solve for \"x\":
\n" ); document.write( "x + y = 200
\n" ); document.write( "x + 120 = 200
\n" ); document.write( "x = 80 (# of $33 tickets sold)
\n" ); document.write( "===================================
