3) You are selling raffle tickets. You sell tickets to adults and children. You sell a total of 475 tickets. Adult tickets cost $3 per ticket and children tickets cost $2
per ticket. You earn a total of $1200. How many adult tickets and how many
children tickets were sold?

Answerdollars and kids at :

250 adult tickets were sold. 225 kid tickets were sold.

Step-by-step explanation:

set it up like a table.  you already know how many tickets were sold. 475. you know the adult tickets are valued at 3 dollars and kids at 2. and you know they collected 1200.00

x( represents adults) + y (represents kids) = 475 in tickets

3x + 2y=1200 collected

x= 475 - y

3(475-y) + 2y = 1200

1425- 3y + 2y=1200

3y + 2y= 1425-1200

y=225 which is  number of kid tickets sold

take the 475 total ticket minus the number of kid tickets 225 to get the adult tickets sold. 250

hopes this helps. I could not figure out how to set it up in a table format.
