Jillian's school is selling tickets for a play. The tickets cost $10.50 for adults and $3.75 for students. The ticket sales for opening night totaled $2071.50. The equation 10.50 +3.750 - 2071.50, where a is the number of adult tickets sold and b
is the number of student tickets sold, can be used to find the number of adult and student tickets. If 82 students
attended, how may adult tickets were sold?

168 adult tickets were sold

Step-by-step explanation:

$10. 50 per adults

$3. 75 per student

$3. 75 × 82 = $307. 50

Overall the amount of money made was $2071.50

If you subtract $307.50 from $2071. 50 you will get $1,764

We now need to find out how many adults bought tickets by dividing $1, 764 by the price adults have to pay so..
