x= cost of adult ticket
\n" ); document.write( "y= cost of youth ticket
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "2 x + 3 y = 134 .............1
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "3 x + 2 y = 146 .............2
\n" ); document.write( "Eliminate y
\n" ); document.write( "multiply (1)by -2
\n" ); document.write( "Multiply (2) by 3
\n" ); document.write( "-4 x -6 y = -268
\n" ); document.write( "9 x + 6 y = 438
\n" ); document.write( "Add the two equations
\n" ); document.write( "5 x = 170
\n" ); document.write( "/ 5
\n" ); document.write( "x = 34
\n" ); document.write( "plug value of x in (1)
\n" ); document.write( "2 x + 3 y = 134
\n" ); document.write( "68 + 3 y = 134
\n" ); document.write( " 3 y = 134 -68
\n" ); document.write( " 3 y = 66
\n" ); document.write( " y = 22 1
\n" ); document.write( "x= 34 cost of adult ticket
\n" ); document.write( "y= 22 cost of youth ticket
