Question 554947: Here is my problem, I need to solve:
The drama club sold 421 tickeets to its play for a total of $1,224. A student ticket costs $2 while an Adult ticket costs $5. How many tickets of each type did the drama club sell? Answer by rfer(16322) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! s+a=421
a=421-s
-----------
2s+5a=1224
2s+5(421-s)=1224
2s+2105-5s=1224
-3s=-881
s=-881/-3
s=294
a=421-294
a=127
