At a charity fund raiser, adult tickets were sold for $11 each and children’s tickets were sold for $5 each.  If a total of 637 tickets were sold, and 4667 was raised, how many tickets of each kind were sold?

a = adult tix       value = 11a

c = child tix = (637-a)     value =   5 ( 637-a)       summed = 4667

 

11a      +      5 ( 637-a)        =    4667  

 

     solve for   a                then   c = 637-a
