Answer: Number of students tickets were sold = 120
Number of adults tickets were sold = 200
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x= Number of adults, y = Number of students
As per given,
x+y=320 ...(i)
4x+2.5y=1100 ...(ii)
Multiply 2.5 on both the sides of (i), we get
2.5x+2.5y=800 ...(iii)
Subtract (iii) from (ii), we get
1.5x=300
[tex]x=\frac{300}{1.5}\\x=200[/tex]
From (i) y= 320-200 = 120
Hence, Number of students tickets were sold = 120
Number of adults tickets were sold = 200
