Answer:

see the explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> the number of student tickets

y ---> the number of adult tickets

we know that

All seats for the performance tonight are filled (Is a 500-seat theater)

so

[tex]x+y=500[/tex] ----> equation A

Total ticket sales are $3400

so

[tex]5x+8y=3,400[/tex] -----> equation B

Solve the system by graphing

Remember that the solution is the intersection point both graphs

The solution is the point (200,300)

see the attached figure

therefore

The number of student tickets sold was 200 and the number of adult tickets sold was 300
