Answer:
200 student
162 adult
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the number of student tickets, and y be the number of adult tickets.
We know that the total number of tickets is 362, so
x+y=362
We know the student tickets cost $5 and the adult tickets cost $7 and the total price is $2134, so
5x+7y=2134
We can substitute x with 362-y
5(362-y)+7y=2134
1810-5y+7y=2134
1810+2y=2134
2y=324
y=162
We can plug y=162 into the equation
x+162=362
x=200
Now, we plug x=200 and y=162 in the other equation to check our work
5(200)+7(162)=2134
1000+1134=2134
2134=2134
