The admission price of an art exhibit is $6 for children & $12 for adults. If, in one day, there were 170 admissions & a total of $1770 collected, haw many tickets of each category were sold? Show all your work. Hint: Make a chart or a diagram to help you out.

Let the number of tickets sold for children=C

Let the number of tickets sold for adults =A

 

C + A = 170

6C + 12A =1,770, solve for C, A

C = 45 Childrens' admissions

A = 125 Adults' admissions.
