A total of 579 tickets were sold for the school play they were either adult tickets or student tickets. there were 71 fewer student tickets sold than adults tickets. how many adult tickets were sold

Respuesta :

Answer: 325

Step-by-step explanation:

Student tickets: x

Adult tickets: x + 71

Total: 579

x + x + 71 = 579

2x + 71 = 579

2x = 579 - 71

2x = 508

x = 508/2

x = 254

Adult tickets = x + 71 = 254 + 71 = 325
