Question 1111712
large box	x	lbs										
small box	y	lbs										
Equation for tickets	total distance											
												
1	x	+	1	y	=	65	.............1					
												
Equation for amount spent												
60	x	+	50	y	=	3700	.............2					
Eliminate y												
multiply (1)by		-50.00										
Multiply (2) by		1										
-50.00	x		-50.00	y	=	-3250.00						
60.00			50.00	y	=	3700.00						
Add the two equations												
10.00	x				=	450.00						
/	10.00											
x	=	45.00										
plug value of			x	in (1)								
1.00	x	+	1.00	y	=	65.00						
45.00		+	1.00	y	=	65.00						
			1.00	y	=	20.00						
				y=		20.00						
												
large box	45.00	lbs										
small box	20.00	lbs
