At the movie theater, the total value of tickets sold was $2,612.50. Adult tickets sold for $10 each and senior/child tickets sold for $7.50 each. The number of senior/child tickets sold was 25 less than twice the number of adult tickets sold. How many senior/child tickets and how many adult tickets were sold?

A) 10 A + 7.5 C = 2,612.50

B) C = (A*2) -25

Substituting B) into A)

10A + 7.5 (2A -25) = 2,612.50

10 A + 15 A -187.50 = 2,612.50

25A = 2800

Adult Tickets = 112

Senior / Child Tickets = (112 *2) -25

=199

DOUBLE - CHECK

10 * 112 + 7.5 * 199 = 2,612.50

Step-by-step explanation:

the best buy, is the 4- kilogram bag of lollipops for $18.40.

step-by-step explanation:

i found my answer by dividing the cost of each bag by their respective weights.

14.88 divided by 2 = 7.44

17.29 divided by 3 = 5.77

18.4 divided by 4 = 4.6

24.4 divided by 5 = 4.88

by this, i found that the 4 kilo bag is the best buy.
