Suppose there are two types of tickets to a show: advance and same day. The combined cost of one advance ticket and one same day ticket is $60. For one performance, 20 advance tickets and 40 same day tickets were sold. The total amount paid for the tickets was $2000. What was the price of each kind of ticket?
Using system of equations, we get
a+s=60
20a+40s=2000
a=60-s
1200-20s+40s=2000
20s=800
s=40
a+40=60
a=20
Advance Tickets are $20, Same Day Tickets are $40
