Question 677682: Concert tickets cost $25 for the balcony and $40 for the first floor. If the total amount collected for 325 tickets was $10,000 how many of each tickets was sold?
What I did was I put it into a equation.
25x+40y=10,000 I don't know if thats right,

200 balcony tickets were sold
125 1st floor tickets were sold
