Question 119242
The student council is sponsoring a carnival to raise money. Tickets cost $5 for adults and $3 for students. The student council wants to raise $450 
a. Write an equation to find the number of each type of ticket they should sell.
Let "x" be # of adult tickets; Let "y" be # of student tickets: 
Value Equation: 5x+3y=450
-------------------------- 
b. Graph your equation.
y = (-5/3)x+150
{{{graph(400,300,-20,100,-10,175,(-5/3)x+150)}}}
--------------------------- 
c. Use your graph to find two different combinations of tickets sold.
I'll leave that to you.
