Children's tickets to a local play cost $1.50 less than adult tickets. At one performance 325 children tickets and 175 adult tickets were sold for a total of $3512.50. How many dollars did an adult ticket cost?
a -150 = c
325 c + 175 a = 351250
325 ( a - 150) + 175 a = 351250 Now....can you solve for 'a' <==== which is the number of adult tix
*** edit ***
Now....can you solve for 'a' <==== which is the price of adult tix
The answer is incorrect though.
What answer did YOU get ? I got the price as 800 ( 8 dollars)
+136
