<PRE><B>Question 156006</B>
a ticket master sold 480 tickets. the floor tickets were $30 each and upper $24 each. they made $13,200. how many of each ticket did they sell?
-------------------
One-Variable Solution:
Value EQUATION: 30x + 24(480-x) = 13200, where x is the number of floor tickets.
30x + 24*480 - 24x = 13200
6x = 1680
x = 280 (# of floor tickets sold)
480-x = 200 (# of upper tickets)
