\n" ); document.write( "Adult ticket = $5
\n" ); document.write( "Total Sale = $180\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "(Bill sold Kid tickets)(price of a Kid ticket)+(Bill sold Adult tickets)(price of a Adult ticket)=Total Sale
\n" ); document.write( "(x)(3)+(50-x)(5)=180
\n" ); document.write( "3x+250-5x=180
