A total of 326 adult and student tickets were sold for a high school play. The ticket prices were $8 for adults and $5 for students. If a total of $1972 was collected from ticket sales, how many student tickets were sold?
Please help! (FAST)

212 tickets were sold

Step-by-step explanation:

a (adult) + s (student) = 326

8a + 5s = 1972

-5(a + s = 326)

-5a-5s=1630

3a/3 = 342/3

a = 114

114 + s = 326

s = 212

answer: there are x+184 pages in olivia's book.

step-by-step explanation:

let the total number of pages in the book which olive has already read be x.

then if olive has 184 pages left to read, then the total number of pages are in olive's book= pages she has read+pages she has left to read

therefore, the total number of pages in olivia's book=

hence, there are x+184 pages in olivia's book.

x = 17

step-by-step explanation:

1st step: isolate x.

24 - 3x = -27

-24         -24

-3x   =   -51

2nd step: divide.

-3x     =   -51

  3             3

  x       =     17

hope this
