Answer:
Number of Adult tickets sold = 420
Number of Students tickets sold = 360
Step-by-step explanation:
Given as ,
Number of adult ticket + Number of Students tickets = 780
Each Adult ticket cost = $8
Each Student ticket cost = $3
Total of ( Adult ticket cost + Student ticket cost) = $ 4,440
i.e
A + S = 780 ....1
And 8A + 3S = 4440 .....2
Solve eq 1 and 2
Or, 8A + 3S = 4440
3A + 3S = 2340
Or, (8A + 3S) - (3A + 3S) = (4440 - 2340)
or, 5A = 2100
So, A = 420
Now put this A value in eq 1
So 420 + S = 780
Or, S = 780 - 420
So , S = 360
Hence The Number of Adult tickets sold = 420
And The Number of Student tickets sold = 360
