Answer: General audience tickets= 700
Balcony tickets = 200
Step-by-step explanation:
Your question isn't complete. But here is an identical question.
A concert brought in $14000 on the sale of 900 tickets. Two types of tickets were sold: General audience tickets which cost $12 each and balcony tickets which cost $28 each. How many tickets of each type were sold?
Let the number of general audience tickets be a
Let the number of balcony tickets be b.
The information can be formed into the following equation:
a + b = 900 ......... i
12a + 28b = 14000 ........ ii
Multiply equation i by 12
Multiply equation ii by 1
12a + 12b = 10800 ........ iii
12a + 28b = 14000 ........ iv
Subtract iv from iii
-16b = -3200
b = 3200/16
b = 200
Number of balcony tickets = 200
Put the value of b into the equation I
a + b = 900
a + 200 = 900
a = 900 - 200
a = 700
Number of general audience tickets is 700
