Algebra.Com's Answer #7177 by LilSkittleMd(119)![]() ![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! Let A=adult tickets \n" ); document.write( "S=student tickets \n" ); document.write( "First you need to set up your equations \n" ); document.write( "2A+1S=1200 \n" ); document.write( "A=2S \n" ); document.write( "To solve this use the substitution method and plug in what A is equal to \n" ); document.write( "2(2S)+1S=1200 \n" ); document.write( "Distribute \n" ); document.write( "4S+1S=1200 \n" ); document.write( "Combine like terms \n" ); document.write( "5S=1200 \n" ); document.write( "Divide both sides by 5 \n" ); document.write( "S=240 \n" ); document.write( "Now plug in the S value into one of the original equations \n" ); document.write( "A=2(240) \n" ); document.write( "A=480 \n" ); document.write( "There were 240 student tickets sold and 480 adult tickets sold \n" ); document.write( " |
