Answer 1

100 passengers are ther

Answer 2

Answer:

Rs 8 --30 people,Rs 10------ 26 people

Step-by-step explanation:

let the people with Rs 8 ticket be X

and the people with Rs 10 tickets be y

x+y = 56-----1

8x+10y= 500 ---- 2

multiplying equation 1 with 8 we get

by substraction

8x+8y= 448

8x+10y=500

-2y= -52

2y=52

y= 26

put the value of y in eq 1 we get

X+y =56

X+26=56

X= 30
