Do you know how to solve a system of equations which is in a form, system%28Ax%2BBy=C%2CEx%2BFy=G%29 in variables x and y with all other variables as constants?

The form of the system may be simpler and goes like system%28Ax%2BBy=C%2Cx%2By=H%29.

ACCOUNT FOR REVENUE
12.50x%2B17.5y=1535

ACCOUNT FOR TOTAL TICKET ADMISSIONS
x%2By=110
