The local theater is showing a matinee and offering a special deal for the community. Aticket for an adult costs Sl I and a ticket for a child costs S6. The theater sells a total of 60 tickets and collects S460. How many adult tickets x and children tickets y are sold

20 adult tickets and 40 children tickets are sold

Step-by-step explanation:

Let there are x adult tickets and y children tickets are sold. The theater sells a total of 60 tickets.

ATQ,

x+y = 60 (1)

A ticket for an adult costs $11 and a ticket for a child costs $6. The theater sells a total of 60 tickets and collects $460.

ATQ,

11x+6y=460 ...(2)

Multiply equation (1) by 6.

6x+6y=360 ...(3)

Subtract equation (2) and (3)

11x+6y-(6x+6y) = 460-360

11x+6y-6x-6y = 100

5x = 100

x = 20

Put x in equation (1)

20+y=60

y = 60-20

y = 40

Hence, there are 20 adult tickets and 40 children tickets are sold.
