Each general admission ticket for a local symphony concert is $24. if someone who is a student or a senior citizen attends, the ticket cost is only $20 per person. Suppose the tickets sales for one hour brings in $520. Write an equation in standard form to represent the situation. Give three ordered pairs that could represent combinations of tickets sold

Answer:

24 g + 20 s = 520


3 possible ordered pairs are

(0 general, 26 student/senior)

(10 general, 14 student/senior)

(20 general, 2 student/senior)

Step-by-step explanation:

general admission = 24

student/senior = 20

24 g + 20 s = 520

let g = 0

20 s = 520

divide by 20

20s/20 = 520/20

s =26

if no general admission are sold  26 senior/student are sold  (0,26)

(g=0,s=26)

let g=10

24*10 + 20s = 520

240 + 20s = 520

subtract 240 from each side

20s = 520-240

20 s = 280

divide by 20

s = 280/20

s=14

(10,14)  (g=10,s=14)


let g=20

24*20 + 20s = 520

480 + 20s = 520

subtract 480 from each side

20s = 520-480

20 s = 40

divide by 20

s = 40/20

s=2

(20,2)  (g=20,s=2)
