Tickets to a freshman basketball game are $5 for students and $8 for adults. Last week 64 tickets were sold to the game for a total of $461. How many of each ticket were sold?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let s be number of students and a be number of adults.

a + s = 64 -> 5a + 5s = 320

8a + 5s = 461

(8a + 5s) - (5a + 5s) = 461 - 320

3a = 141

a = 47

a + s = 64 -> s + 47 = 64 -> s = 17

Answer:

a + s = 64 -> 5a + 5s = 320

8a + 5s = 461

(8a + 5s) - (5a + 5s) = 461 - 320

3a = 141

a = 47

a + s = 64 -> s + 47 = 64 -> s = 17
