x is the number of Lower Level tickets and y is the number of Upper Level tickets.The sistem of equations is :
x+y=350 and 35x+25y=10,250.
x=350-y so 35(350-y)+25y=10250⇔12250-35y+25y=10250⇔10y=2000⇔y=200$/upper level ticket and x=150$/lower level ticket

u represents the number of upper seats
350 - u represents the number of lower seats
25u + 35(350 - u) = 10250
Can you solve for u and answer?
