<PRE><B>Question 172953</B>
Tickets for a concert were sold to adults for $3 and to students for $2. If the total receipts were $824 and twice as many adult tickets as student tickets were sold, then how many of each were sold? 
-------------------------------------------------
Equations:
Value Equation: 3a + 2s = 824
Quantity Eq...:  a - 2s = 0
------------------------------
Add the two equations to get:
4a= 824
a = 206 (# of adult tickets sold)
s = 103 (# of student tickets sold)
---------------
Cheers,
