Tickets for the regional volleyball tournament went on sale at Lazy Creek High School on Monday. General admission tickets cost $6.00 each and reserved seating tickets cost $12.00 each. If 400 tickets were sold on Monday and the total ticket sales was $3150.00, how many of each type of ticket was sold?\r

\n" ); document.write( "Quantity Eq::: g +r = 400
\n" ); document.write( "Value Eq::::: 6g+12r= 3150
\n" ); document.write( "-----
\n" ); document.write( "Modify for elimination:
