Answer:

  350 adult tickets were sold

Step-by-step explanation:

Let "a" represent the number of adult tickets sold. Then the number of student tickets is (a+69) and the total number of tickets sold is ...

  a + (a+69) = 769

  2a = 700 . . . . . . . . subtract 69

  a = 350 . . . . . . . . . divide by 2

350 adult tickets were sold.
