At the movie theater, child admission is $6.30 and adult admission is $9.70. on monday, 132 tickets were sold for a total of $1076.40. how many child tickets were sold that day?

60 tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

At a movie theater, children admission = $6.30

And adult admission = $9.70

On Monday, 132 tickets were sold for a total of $1076.40

Let the number of child tickets be x ,

and the number of adult tickets be y.

This forms a simultaneous equation:

x + y = 132 ... (i)

$6.30x + $9.70 = $1076.40 ... (ii)

Multiplying (i) by 6.3 and (ii) by 1 we get;

6.3x + 6.3y = 831.6  ... (i)

6.3x + 9.7y = 1076.4 ... (ii)

Subtracting (ii) - (i) we get;

3.4y = 244.8

y = 72

The number of child tickets were; 132 - 72 = 60

i do not know this sorry : (

answer:

it is general formula that is used to write value to its excet position

a11 a12 a13

a21 a22 a23

it is the example of order 2 by 3 matrix in this

a11 means value occur in 1 st row 1st column

a12 means value occurs in 1st row 2nd column

a13 means value occur in 1st row and 3rd column

a21 means value occurs in 2nd row and 1st column

a22 means value occurs in 2nd row and in 2nd column

a23 means value occurs in 2nd row and in 3rd column
