Let $\"+x+\"$ = number of adult tickets sold
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+126+-+x+\"$ = number of children's tickets sold
\n" ); document.write( "--------------------
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+3x+%2B+2.25%2A%28+126+-+x+%29+=+343.5+\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+3x+%2B+283.5+-+2.25x++=+343.5+\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+.75x+=+60+\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+x+=+80+\"$
\n" ); document.write( "and
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+126+-+80+=+46+\"$
\n" ); document.write( "-------------------
\n" ); document.write( "80 adults and 46 children went to the concert
\n" ); document.write( "-------------------
\n" ); document.write( "check:
