2s+3.5a = 3825
\n" ); document.write( "s+a = 1500\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "2s+3.5a = 3825 1.5a = 825
\n" ); document.write( "2s+2a = 3000 1.5a/1.5 = 825/1.5 a = 550\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Sub In\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "2s+3.5(550) = 3825
\n" ); document.write( "2s+1925 = 3825
\n" ); document.write( "2s = 1900
\n" ); document.write( "s = 950\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Sub In Again
\n" ); document.write( "950+550 = 1500
\n" ); document.write( "1500 = 1500\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Therefore, 550 adult tickets & 950 student tickets were purchased.\r
