Having problems setting up and solving. Please help Answer by sofiyac(983) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! lets say she got x of adult tickets, then children's would be x+8
7.50(x+8)+12x=138
7.50x+60+12x=138
19.50x=78
x=4 so we have 4 adult tickets and 4+8=12 children's tickets
