Answer:

General admissions sold: 880

Reserved seating sold: 256

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up equation:

Variable x = people who bought general admission

Variable y = people who bought reserved seating

x + y = 1136

5x + 7y = 6192

Isolate a variable in any equation:

Y = 1136 - x

Substitute the value of the variable in the other equation:

5x + 7(1136 - x) = 6192

5x + 7952 - 7x = 6192

-2x + 7952 = 6192

-2x = -1760

x = 880

Substitute the value of x in any equation:

880 + y = 1136

y = 256

Check your work:

880 + 256 = 1136

1136 = 1136

Correct!

5(880) + 7(256) = 6192

4400 + 1792 = 6192

6192 = 6192

Correct!
