Best Answer

The tickets are $5 adult and $2 child.

Here is the algebraic substitution.

A = adult ticket money

C = child ticket money

120C + 80A = 640

C = A-3 (three dollars less)

120 (A-3) + 80A = 640

120 A - 360 + 80A = 640

200 A = 1000

A = 5

C = A - 3 = 2

Checking your answer:

120(2) + 80 (5) = 240 + 400 = 640

Michelle sold tickets for the basketball gameEach adult costs 3.00 and each student ticket cost 1.50 There were 105 tickets sold for a total of 250.00How many of each type of ticket were sold?

Sounds like a system of equations. X = adult ticket Y = student ticket Change all to pennies for convenience. X + Y = 105 300X + 150Y = 25000 -150(X + Y = 105) - 150X - 150Y = - 15750 300X + 150Y = 25000 -----------------------------------add them 150X = 9250 X = 62 adult tickets ------------------------ Y = 43 student tickets -------------------------- Those two prices added together = $250.50 So, we are a little off. I rounded the adult ticket number, but pieces of tickets can not be sold, so check work.
