Question

A concert charges $24.50 per daily adult ticket and $13.75 per child’s ticket. A group of 90 people paid $1560.00 for tickets. Write a system of equations that could be used to find x, the number of adult tickets purchased, and y, the number of children's tickets purchased? PLEASE SHOW WORK

Answer 1

Let x be the number of adult tickets purchased.
Let y be the number of children's tickets purchased.
Know let us form equations out of given data,
A group of 90 people mean, x+y= 90
A group of 90 people paid $1560.00 for tickets mean 24.50x+13.75y=1560.00
Solve for x and y,
x+y= 90
24.50x+13.75y=1560.00
