Question 974960: The Best Theme Park sold 130 tickets in an hour and made $5,300 from ticket sales. An adult ticket sells for $50.00. A child ticket sells for $20.00.
Let x = the number of adult tickets and y = the number of child tickets. The system below represents this situation.
x + y = 130
50x + 20y = 5300
Graph the system to find the solution. Write the solution as an ordered pair rounded to nearest whole number.
