Answer:

yep ur welcome

Step-by-step explanation:

2s+2105-5s=1224

-3s=-881

s=-881/-3

s=294

a=421-294

a=127

Answer:

Student tickets: 287

Adult tickets: 134

Step-by-step explanation:

Students: x

Adults: y

a) x + y = 421

b) 2x + 5y = 1,244

a) x = 421 - y

b) 2 (421 - y) + 5y = 1,244 (substitution)

842 - 2y + 5y = 1244

3y = 1244 - 842

y = 402/3

y = 134 adult tickets

421 - 134 = 287 student tickets
