The peace center is ready to reopen with a special rate. Tickets for the opening show cost 4.00 for adults and 1.50 for students. If 450 tickets were sold for a total of 925 on opening night, how many adults and students tickets were sold?

there were 100 adults  and 350 children tickets sold .

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1

let number of adult tickets sold be represented as  x

and that of children be  y

such that the total number of adult and children who attended the center will be expressed as

x+ y = 450equation 1

 and the total cost of tickets sold can be expressed as

4x+ 1.50 y= 925,...equation 2

Step 2--Solving

x+ y = 450eqn1

4x+ 1.50 y= 925,...eqn 2

 By elimination method , Multiply equation 1  by 4 and subtract equation 2 from  the new equation  formed

4x+ 4y= 1800 eqn 3

-4x+ 1.50 y= 925 eqn 2

2.5y=875

y= 875/2.5

y=350

to fnd x

x+ y= 450

x= 450- 350

x= 100

Therefore there were 100 adults  and 350 children tickets sold .
