Answer:

  • 28 general admission
  • 26 student

Step-by-step explanation:

Let g represent the number of general admission tickets sold. Then the revenue is ...

  3g +2.50(54-g) = 149

  .50g = 14 . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 135

  g = 14/.5 = 28 . . general admission tickets sold

  54-g = 26 . . . . . student tickets sold
