Answer:

95 child tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

a+c =153       c=( 153-a) you need to plug this for c

9.6a + 5.6(153-a) = 1088.8

9.6a + 856.8 - 5.6a = 1088.8

4a +856.8 = 1088.8

subtract 856.8 on both sides

4a = 232

a=58   (58 adults)

153 - 58 = 95 (95 children)

95*$ 5.6 =  $532

85 *$ 9.6 =$ 556.8

$532 + $556.8 =$ 1088.8
