250 $3 tickets and 100 $2 tickets were sold.
Step-by-step explanation:
The cost of tickets for a play is $3.00 for adults and $2.00 for children. 350 tickets were sold and $950 was collected. How many tickets of each type were sold?
Solution:
Step 1: Set up a table with quantity and value.
quantityvaluetotal$3 tickets$2 ticketstogether
Step 2: Fill in the table with information from the question.
The cost of tickets for a play is $3.00 for adults and $2.00 for children. 350 tickets were sold and $950 was collected. How many tickets of each type were sold?
Let x = number of $3 tickets
Let y = number of $2 tickets
Total = quantity × value
quantityvaluetotal$3 ticketsx33x$2 ticketsy22ytogether350950
Step 3: Add down each column to get the equations
x + y = 350 (equation 1)
3x + 2y = 950 (equation 2)
Use Substitution Method
Isolate variable x in equation 1
x = 350 – y (equation 3)
Substitute equation 3 into equation 2
3(350 – y) + 2y = 950
1050 – 3y + 2y = 950
3y – 2y = 1050 – 950
y = 100
Substitute y = 100 into equation 1
x + 100 = 350
x = 250

Question 1 a: $24.5 b: $10.5 c: 3/10
Step-by-step explanation:
A: 7/10 = 0.7
0.7 * 35 = 24.5
B: $35 - $24.5 = $10.5
C: Since it is 7/10 of the normal cost, you save 3/10.
Checking the work: 3/10 = 0.3
0.3 * 35 = 10.5, or the amount you saved.
