Given :

On the first day of ticket sales the school sold 10 senior tickets and 1 child ticket for a total of $85 .

The school took in $75 on the second day by selling 5 senior citizens tickets and 7 child tickets.

To Find :

The price of a senior ticket and the price of a child ticket.

Solution :

Let, price of senior ticket and child ticket is x and y respectively.

Mathematical equation of condition 1 :

10x + y = 85    ...1)

Mathematical equation of condition 2 :

5x + 7y = 75    ...2)

Solving equation 1 and 2, we get :

2(2) - (1)   :

2( 5x + 7y - 75 ) - ( 10x +y - 85 ) = 0

10x + 14y - 150 - 10x - y + 85 = 0

13y = 65

y = 5

10x - 5 = 85

x = 8

Therefore, price of a senior ticket and the price of a child ticket $8 and $5.

Hence, this is the required solution.

the answer is 18 units because there are 18 small cubes inside the rectangle
