The number of tickets for students sold was 836 and the number of tickets for general admission sold was 1,121

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct question is

Tickets for a high school football game cost $2 for students and $3 for general admission. 1,957 tickets were sold and $5,035 was collected. How many of each type of tickets was sold?

Let

x ----> number of tickets for students sold

y ----> number of tickets for general admission sold

we know that

----> ----> equation A

----> equation B

Solve the system by substitution

substitute equation A in equation B

solve for y

Find the value of x

---->

therefore

The number of tickets for students sold was 836 and the number of tickets for general admission sold was 1,121

let x be the money she spent so that she can earn the free t-shirt.

since, she already spent $112.49

⇒

also, as per the statement: jennifer must spend $250 or more in order to qualify for a free t-shirt at the store.

then,

we have an inequality i.,e

subtract 112.49 from both sides we get;

therefore, $137. 51 more money does jennifer need to spend so that she can earn the free t-shirt
