Matrix
Given:
Child ticket=$9
Adult ticket=$12
Total ticket sold=820 ticket
Total earnings=$9,222
Let x represent Child ticket and let y represent adult ticket
Hence:
x+y=820...... (1)
9x+12y=9,222......(2)
Matrix representation of equation 1 and 2
[tex]\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&1\\9&12\\&&\end{array}\right][/tex] [tex]\left[\begin{array}{ccc}x\\y&\\\end{array}\right][/tex] = [tex]\left[\begin{array}{ccc}820\\9,222\\\end{array}\right][/tex]
Therefore the matrix equation to represent the system, using x to represent the number of children’s tickets sold and y to represent the number of adults’ tickets sold is: Option C.
