there were 508 people at a rock concert. Orchestra seats cost $25 per person and balcony seats cost $18. The amount sold totaled $11,223. Find the number of orchestra seats and the number of balcony seats sold for the concert.

211  balcony seats and 297  orchestra seats  

Step-by-step explanation:

x = Orchestra seats

y = Balcony seats

Total person at concert = 508

So      x + y = 508

Cost

Orchestra seat $25x

Balcony seats $18y

Total money $11,223

So $25x + $18y = $11,223

Solving      x + y = 508

              $25x + $18y = $11,223

Solving the first equation for x and substituting x into the second equation then solve for y.

x + y = 508

x = 508 - y    substituting x = 508 -y in second equation

25(508 - y) + 18y = 11,223

12700 - 25y + 18y = 11,223

12700 - 7y =     11223

-7y = 11223 - 12700

 -7y = -1477  

   y = -1477 ÷ -7

   y = 211  balcony seats

x + y = 508

x + 211 = 508

x = 508 - 211

x = 297  orchestra seats

step-by-step explanation:

just keep timing it by 4.

you forgot the options, but i found them anyways, the correct answer is "john wilson believes that words and actions based on the intellect are superior to those based on emotions".

john wilson is depicted as an extremely intelligent man. the point of the excerpt is to make a sort of distinction between emotional and rational intelligence. he happens to have both attributes, but he clearly favors his intellectual gifts. at the same time, because of his religious background, he's a little bit conflicted with this and it makes him ashamed.

hope this !
