Answer:

3.5x + 2.50y = 1237.50

425 = x + y

Step-by-step explanation:

number of adult tickets: x

number of student tickets: y

3.5x + 2.50y = 1237.50

( value of adult ticket [3.50]* number of adult tickets [x]) + (value of student ticket [2.50] * number of student tickets [y]) = total value (1237.50)

425 = x + y

(number of adult tickets [x]) + (number of student tickets [y]) = total (425)
