Answer:

The equation will be:  [tex]3s+5t=779[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of student tickets that were sold [tex]=s[/tex]

and the number of other tickets that were sold [tex]=t[/tex]

Student tickets cost $3 a piece and tickets for everyone else cost $5 each.

So, the total cost of  [tex]s[/tex]  student tickets [tex]=\$3s[/tex] and the total cost of  [tex]t[/tex]  other tickets [tex]=\$5t[/tex]

Given that, the drama club sold total $779 worth of tickets.

So, the equation will be:  [tex]3s+5t=779[/tex]
