Tickets to a broadway show cost $35 for adults and $27 for children. the total receipts for 1229 tickets at one performance were $40335. how many adult and child tickets were sold?

The number of adults tickets sold was 894 and the number of children tickets sold was 335

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> the number of adults tickets sold

y ----> the number of children tickets sold

we know that

x+y=1,229 -----> equation A

35x+27y=40,335 ----> equation B

Solve the system by graphing

Remember that the solution is the intersection point both graphs

The solution is the point (894,335)

see the attached figure

therefore

The number of adults tickets sold was 894 and the number of children tickets sold was 335

on monday rodney ate 1/4th of the sandwich = 3/12

on tuesday he ate 1/3rd of the sandwich = 4/12

therefore in total he has eaten = 3/12 + 4/12 = 7/12

thus we can say that he has eaten 7/12 of the sandwich on monday and tuesday alltogether.
