the number of ticket within meal is 50
and number of tickets without meal is 20
Step-by-step explanation:
50×35$ +20×25$ = 2250$
The required answer is 20.
As per the question we need to find the how many tickets of the type without a meal.
The given data is tickets to the high school reunion cost $35 with a meal and $25 without a meal. The reunion committee sells 70 tickets for $2,250.
Let y tickets of the type without a meal were sold,and x tickets of the type with a meal were sold.
Then according to the question we conclude that
x + y = 70,............ (1)
$35x+$25y = $2250..........(2)
from equation 1 we get
x = 70-y,
Now put the x value in 2 we get
35(70-y) + 25y =2250
2450 -35y+25y = 2250,
2450-2250 =10y
200=10y
y=20.
Hence the required answer is 20.
