Tickets to the college basketball game are 2.50 for students and 3 for general admission if 132 people attened the last game and the box office collected 359, how many of each type of ticket did they sell?

Respuesta :

Answer: student = 74

General admission = 58

Step-by-step explanation:

Let s = number of student tickets

Let G = number of general admission tickets

S+G =132 ----------1

2.5s + 3G = 359 ------2

Put S = 132 - G in eqn 2

2.5(132-G) + 3G = 359

330- 2.5G + 3G =359

0.5G =29

G = 58

S =132 -58= 74
