Answer:
6 adult tickets, 4 children tickets
Step-by-step explanation:
Let a = number of adult tickets.
Let c = number of children tickets.
Equation of numbers of tickets:
a + c = 10
Equation of cost of tickets.
8a + 2.5c = 58
Multiply both sides of the first equation by -8 and add it to the second equation.
-8a - 8c = -80
(+) 8a + 2.5c = 58
------------------------------
-5.5c = -22
c = 4
a + c = 10
a + 4 = 10
a = 6
