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.
