Given that the costs of general admission and student tickets to a high school football game are $28 for 4 adult tickets and $24 for 6 child tickets, respectively. The ticket sales for one game totaled $11,200.
$28 for 4 adult tickets.
Divide 28 by 4 to find the cost for an adult ticket.
[tex]\frac{28}{4}=7[/tex]The cost of a ticket for an adult is $7.
Divide 24 by 6 to find the cost for a child ticket
[tex]\frac{24}{6}=4[/tex]The cost of a ticket for a child is $4.
Let x be the number of adults ticket and y be the number of child tickets.
[tex]7x+4y=11200[/tex]
