the manager if a movie theater found that Saturday's sales were $3675. He knew that a total of 650 tickets were sold Saturday. Adult tickets cost $7.50, and children's tickets cost cost $4.50. How many of each kind of ticket were sold?

We can write a system of equations:

7.50a + 4.50c = 3675
a + c = 650

Where 'a' is adult tickets, and 'c' is children tickets.

Solve this and we get (250, 400). So there were 250 adult tickets sold, and 400 children tickets sold.
