destinee sold 1500 tickets for either $5 or $8, the theater had $11,100 in sales. how many tickets were sold

Question

we need to find the number of tickets sold for $5 and $8

Debra F. · Accepted Answer

call one of tickets x and the other 1500 - x so 5X + 8(1500 - x) = 11000 Simplify and it becomes 5x - 8x + 12000 = 11100 -3x + 12000 = 11100 - 12000 -12000 -3x = -900 x = 300 So they sold 300 for $5 and 1200 for $8
