Question 937691: The owner of a movie theater was counting the money from 1 days ticket sales. He knew that a total of 150 tickets were sold. Adult tickets cost $7.50 each and children's cost $4.75 each. If the total receipts for the day were $891.25, how many of each kind of tickets were sold? Answer by TimothyLamb(4379) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! x = adult tickets sold
y = child tickets sold
---
x + y = 150
7.50x + 4.75y = 891.25
---
put the system of linear equations into standard form
---
x + y = 150
7.50x + 4.75y = 891.25
---
