You can put this solution on YOUR website! For a soccer game, there were 120 tickets sold for students and adults for a total of $195.00. If student tickets sold for $1.00 and adults for $2.00, how many of each were sold?
---------------------------
Quantity:: s + a = 120 tickets
Value::::: s + 2a = 195 dollars
----------------------------------
Subtract and solve for "a":
a = 75 (# of adult tickets sold)
s = 120 - 75 = 45 (# of student tickets sold)
