Adult ticket are 5 and student tickets are 3 ben collected 180 for the 50 tickets he sold how many adult tickets were sold how many student tickets were sold?

In: Math and Arithmetic [Edit categories]

Answer:

A + S = 50 ===> S = 50 - A

5A + 3S = 180

5A + 3(50 - A) = 180

5A + 150 - 3A = 180

2A = 30

[ A = 15 ]

[ S = 35 ]

=====================

Check:

5(15) + 3(35) = 75 + 105 = 180 yay!
