Write an equation and solve it to find how many tickets they each sold.
b The tickets are $3 for adults and $2 for children. The 80 tickets cost a total of $168. 
--------------------------------------------------------


(a)


Felix sold y+12 tickets and Ali sold y tickets.


{{{y+12+y=80}}}
{{{2y=80-12=68}}}
{{{y=34}}}

Felix sold 46 tickets and Ali sold 34 tickets.


(b)


If A adult tickets then 80-A children tickets.
{{{3A+2(80-A)=168}}}
and you should be able to continue and finish.
