On the first day, 8 adult tickets were sold and 13 student tickets were sold for a total of $75. On day two, 10 adult tickets were sold and 9 student tickets were sold for a total of $72. What is the cost of an adult ticket? What is the cost of a student ticket?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Adult ticket = $4,5

Student ticket = $3

.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let say adult ticket is x and student ticket is y. so we get:

→ 8x + 13y = 75 (×5) 40x + 65y = 375

→ 10x + 9y = 72 (×4) 40x + 36y = 288

.

Eliminate both equations

40x + 65y = 375

40x + 36y = 288    

29y = 87

[tex]y = \frac{87}{29}[/tex]

[tex]y = 3[/tex]

.

Substitute the value of y to one of equations

[tex]10x + 9(3) = 72[/tex]

[tex]10x + 27 = 72[/tex]

[tex]10x = 72 - 27[/tex]

[tex]10x = 45[/tex]

[tex]x = \frac{45}{10}[/tex]

[tex]x = 4,5[/tex]

.
