Tickets to a basketball game vary in price. Adult tickets cost $5 and student cost $1. A total of $2,874 was collected from selling 1,246 tickets. How many of each type of ticket were sold?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a= adult ticket

a= student ticket

5a+1s=2874

1a+1s=1246

Subtract the second equation from the first one

4a=1628

a=407

a+s=1246

407+s=1246

s=839
