Answer:

314

Explanation:

A+S = 431

14A+8S= 5332

A=431-S  

14(431-S)+8S=5332

6034-14S+8S=5332

6034-5332=14S-8S

702=6S

S=702/6= 117

A=431-117

A=314

Answer:

314

Explanation:

Let A be the adult tickets sold.

then number of student tickets will be 431-A

Adult ticket cost = 14*A dollars

Student ticket cost = (431-A)*8

Total Ticket cost  =  14*A + (431-A)*8

Total tickets are equal to 5332 dollars

14*A + (431-A)*8  =  5332

14A + 3448 - 8A  = 5332

6A = 5332-3448

A = 1884 / 6

A = 314 adult tickets
