Bill's school is selling tickets to a spring musical. On the first day of ticket sales the school sold 5 adult tickets and 14 student tickets for a total of $198. The school took in $156 on the second day by selling 10 adult tickets and 8 student tickets. Find the price of an adult ticket and the price of a student ticket.

The price of an adult ticket = $6

The price of a student ticket = $12

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the price of an adult ticket be a

Let the price of a student ticket be b.

From the question,

5a + 14b = 198 equation i

10a + 8b = 156 equation ii

Multiply equation i by 10

Multiply equation ii by 5

50a + 140b = 1980 equation iii

50a + 40b = 780 equation iv

Subtract iv from iii

100b = 1200

b = 1200/100

b = 12

Put the value of b into equation ii

10a + 8b = 156

10a + 8(12) = 156

10a + 96 = 156

10a = 156-96

10a = 60

a = 6

The price of an adult ticket = $6

The price of a student ticket = $12

answer: 3.26019516

step-by-step explanation:

b because it contains 40% of the possible results from the random list.  

0,1,2,3 v 4,5,6,7,8,9  

4 integers to 6 integers  

40% success vs 60% fail
