160 adults40 kids

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 'a' represent the number of adult tickets sold. Then (200-a) is the number of child tickets sold. The total revenue is ...

8.50a +3.50(200 -a) = 1500

5a = 800 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 700 and collect terms

a = 160

(200-a) = 40

160 adults and 40 children paid to see the movie.

Answer from: cheyenneisaboss22

160 adults and 40 children saw the movie on the first night.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of tickets sold = 200

Let the total number of adults be 'x'

So, Total number of children = 200 - x

Cost of adult tickets = $8.50

Cost of child tickets = $3.50

Total sum made on first night = $1,500

Total sum made on first night is equal to total cost of adult tickets + total cost of child tickets

$\longrightarrow$ 8.50x + 3.50(200 - x) = 1500

$\longrightarrow$ 8.5x + 700 - 3.5x = 1500

$\longrightarrow$ 8.5x - 3.5x = 1500 - 700

$\longrightarrow$ 5x = 800

$\longrightarrow$ x = $\sf \dfrac{800}{5}$

$\longrightarrow$ x = 160

$\therefore$ Total number of adults = 160

Total number of children = 200 - 160 = 40

Answer from: Quest

points are handed out whenever you post answers.

brainliest answers are handed out by the person asking the question, so whether your answer is picked depends entirely on whether the asker bothers to pick

if you're asking about your rank, it depends on having a certain number of points and a certain number of brainliest answers. for example, at the time of this writing, i have 44338 points out of 15000 needed for the next (nearly triple the requirement! ) but i only have 24 out of 50 required brainliest answers. this number decays, meaning after a certain amount of time (i think about a month), the total number of brainliest answers you've earned doesn't count toward this total. (i've been stuck at the same rank for a long

the lesson to learn here is that you shouldn't worry about points or rank. chances are, no matter how good an answer you may provide, your efforts will go mostly unnoticed unless you focus on the newest/most active questions that get posted.
