Answer:

278

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply.

324 adult tickets sold is $3,483.(324 x 10.75= 3,483)

Subtract.

The total amount of money earned minus the amount earned from adult tickets is $1529. ( 5,012 - 3,483= 1529)

Divide.

The amount of money earned from student tickets divided by the cost of each ticket is 278. (1,529/5.50 = 278)

Therefore 278 student tickets were sold.

Answer:

x=278

Step-by-step explanation:

Amount collected from adults:

10,75 × 324 = 3483 dollar

Amount collected from students:

5,5 × x=?

3483 + 5,5 × x = 5012

5,5 × x = 5012 - 3483

[tex]x=\frac{5012-3483}{5,5} =\frac{1529}{5,5} =278[/tex]

Answer:

x=278
