\r\n" );
document.write( "Let  x be the number of the $25 tickets.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "Then the number of the $15 tickets is (1700-x).\r\n" );

document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "The \"money\" equation is\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "25x + 15*(1700-x) = 33000   dollars.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "Simplify and solve for x:\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "25x + 25500 - 15x = 33000  ====>  10x = 33000 - 25500 = 7500  ====>  x = \"7500%2F10\" = 750.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "Answer.  750 tickets by $25 and the rest  1700-750 = 950 tickets by $15.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "Check.   750*25 + 950*15 = 33000.   ! Correct !\r\n" );
