At the city museum, child admission is $5.30 and adult admission is $9.20 . On Monday, 166 tickets were sold for a total sales of $1254.20 . How many child tickets were sold that day?

Respuesta :

c+a=166
a=166-c
5.3c+9.2a=1254.2
5.3c+9.2(166-c)=1254.2
5.3c+1527.2-9.2c=1254.2
5.3c-9.2c=1254.2-1527.2
-3.9c=-273
c=-273/-3.9
c=70
Hope this helps!
