Problema Solution

there were 324 tickets sold for a basketbal game. the activity cardholders tickets cost 1.50 and the non cardholders tickets cost 2.50. the total amount of money collected was 639.00 how many of each kind of ticket were sold?

Answer provided by our tutors

if activity card holder = x, then non actovity cardholder = 324-x

so,

total collectionis,

1.5x + 2.5*(324-x) = 639

or, 1.5x + 810 - 2.5x = 639

so, x = 171

so, Activity card holder = 171

non activity cardholder = 153
