The school that Jaidee goes to is selling tickets to the annual talent show. On the first day of ticket sales the school sold 10 seniors citizen tickets and 11 student for a total of $190. The school took in $160 on the second day by selling 5 senior citizen tickets and 12 student tickets. Find the price of a senior citizen ticket and the price of a student ticket

The price of a senior citizen ticket  is $8 and the price of a student ticket is$ 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the cost of one  seniors citizen ticket be x and  student  be y

First day:

10 seniors citizen tickets and 11 student for a total of $190.

10x + 11y = 190-----------------------------(1)

Second day:

$160 on the second day by selling 5 senior citizen tickets and 12 student tickets.

5x + 12y = 160---------------------------------(2)

Multiply eq(2) by 2

10x + 24y = 320----------------------------(3)

Subtract eq(1) from (3)

10x + 24y = 320

10x + 11y = 190

-----------------------------

0x + 13 y =  130

---------------------------

13y = 130

y = 10-------------------------------(4)

Substituting (4) in (2)

5x +  12(10) =  160

5x + 120 = 160

5x = 160-120

5x = 40

x = 8

y = 0.77(x)

step-by-step explanation:

the jacket retains this value after 23% cut or retains 77% of original value. plug original 87 jacket price for x and the remaining value should be y.

your answer would be 10x - 1
