On a Saturday a movie theater sells 785 tickets they sell kid tickets for $2 and adult tickets for $5. that Saturday they make $3280. How many of each kind of ticket did they sell?

570 adults and 215 children

Step-by-step explanation:

did this assignment and got it right

5a + 2c = 3280    where a is adults and c is children

subtraction eliminates c, find a

3a + 0 = 1710

a = 1710/3

a = 570 adult and then you have to subtract 785-570= 215 children

x + y = 90 5x – 10y = 90 90 – 10y = 5x 90 + 10y = 5x

step-by-step explanation:

last month maria hiked the 5-mile mountain trail a number of times and she hiked the 10-mile canal trail several times. let x represent the number of times she hiked the 5-mile trail, and let y represent the number of times she hiked the 10-mile trail. if she hiked a total of 90 miles, which equation can be used to find the number of times maria hiked each trail? x + y = 90 5x – 10y = 90 90 – 10y = 5x 90 + 10y = 5x
