On the first day of ticket sales the school sold 11 adult tickets and 8 child tickets for a total of $154. The school took $127 on the second day of selling 1 adult ticket and 11 child tickets.
Answer provided by our tutors
Let
x = the cost per adult ticket
y = the cost per child ticket
Assuming we need to find the cost of one adult and one child ticket we have:
11x + 8y = 154
x + 11y = 127

........
x = $6
y = $11
One adult ticket costs $6.
One child ticket costs $11.
