\n" ); document.write( "be able to do the 2nd problem.
\n" ); document.write( "------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Let # of child tickets be \"x\" ; value of these is 4x dollars
\n" ); document.write( "# of adult tickets is \"3x\" ; value of thes is 6*3x = 18x dollars
\n" ); document.write( "--------------------
\n" ); document.write( "EQUATIOn:
\n" ); document.write( "value + value = 2200 dollars
\n" ); document.write( "4x+18x= 2200
\n" ); document.write( "22x = 2200
\n" ); document.write( "x= 100 (number of child tickets sold)
