A school drama department sells 40 more student tickets than adult tickets. Charging $8 for adult tickets and $6 for student tickets, the drama department raises a total of $1,920 in ticket sales . Let x represent the number of adult tickets and y represent the number of student tickets sold. Which system of equations can be used to find how many of each ticket is sold?

Adults = x

Students = y = x + 40. 40 more student than adult

Adult = $8,  Student = $6

Total for Adults = 8*x = 8x

Total for students = 6*y = 6y

Total = $1920

8x + 6y = 1920

y = x + 40

8x + 6y = 1920

Step-by-step explanation:

Above

y = 40 + x

8x + 6y = 1920
