The cost of tickets to a school play are $10 for adults and $6 for children under 12. If there were a total of 100 tickets sold to the play on a certain night, what equation would you use to represent the total ticket sales, T, if the number of adult tickets can be represented by a. Show and explain each step to create the equation.

Respuesta :

Answer:

10a+6b=T------------2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Let the number of adults be a

and the number of children be b

we are told that the total tickets is 100

hence

x+y=100-------------1

The cost of adult ticket = $10

The cost of children ticket = $6

since the total cost is T

Hence

10a+6b=T------------2
