You can put this solution on YOUR website! First set up your variables.
$2 Tix = x
$3 Tix = (750-3x) <--- Total tickets minus the sum of $2 & $5 tickets
$5 Tix = 2x
Now multiply the variables by their value and add together to = the total value of the tickets (2625).
$2 Tix = 2(x)
$3 Tix = 3(750-3x)
$5 Tix = 5(2x)
($2) ($5) ($3)
*check*
number of tix...
cost of tix...
