Aaliyah and Rascal Flatts are playing in Indianapolis. The cost for a ticket to see Aaliyah is $65 and a ticket to see Rascal Flatts cost $50. The Ben Davis Management, the firm hosting the events, made $64,000 on the concerts and sold a total of 1100 tickets. How many tickets did they sell to each concert?

Answer provided by our tutors

let ticket of aaliyah = x

rascal = 1100 - x

65x + 50(1100-x) = 64000

=> 15x = 9000

=> x = 600

aaliyah ticket sold = 600

rascal tickets = 500
