Sagot :

Answer:

(C) 220

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of adult tickets sold and y represent the number of student tickets sold. With the information given, we can set up two equations:

[tex]x+y=360[/tex]

[tex]5x+3y=1360[/tex] (Since for every adult ticket sold, $5 is made and for every student ticket sold, $3 is made)

In the first equation, we can represent x in terms of y:

[tex]x=360-y[/tex]

And then, we can substitute x in the second equation for 360 - y to get:

[tex]5(360-y)+3y=1360[/tex] which simplifies to:

[tex]1800-2y=1360[/tex] and therefore, [tex]y=220[/tex].

Hope this helps :)
