The solution to the equation is (325, 404) which is the point of intersection.

Linear equation

A linear equation is in the form:

y = mx + b

where y, x are variables, m is the slope of the line and b is the y intercept.

Let x represent the number of student tickets and y represent the number of adult tickets.

It is given by the equation:

  • x + y = 729    (1)
  • 3x + 5y = 2995   (2)

The solution to the equation is (325, 404) which is the point of intersection.
