How would you come up with an equation and solve for the following problem?Jenny sold tickets for the annual spring concert at Middletown High...

The cost per ticket for adult =Ca=
3.5


the cost per ticket for student = Cs=
2.5


number of students tickets sold = 4 more than adults
tickets


      s= 4 + a.......
(1)


the total sale = (3.5)a+ (2.5)s =
58.....(2)


sustitute with equatin
(1)


==> (3.5)a + (2.5) (4+a)=
58


==> (3.5)a+ 10+ (2.5)a =
58


==> 6a +10=
58


==> 6a =
48


==> a = 8  ==> s =
12


then she sold 8 adults tickets and 12 students
tickets
