I am not sure about the 3rd statement, as I cannot read the original in your screenshot, and your transcribed description is probably not correct and contains typos.

but all you need is in the explanation below to decide, if the actual 3rd statement is true or not.

if "58 + 79 = 1268" actually means "5s + 7g = 1268" then it is true. otherwise it is false.

Step-by-step explanation:

g = number of general tickets sold

s = number of student tickets sold

so, in total

g + s = 234

tickets were sold.

and the revenue was

7g + 5s = $1,268

out of these 2 basic equating we get

g = 234 - s

and then

7(234 - s) + 5s = 1,268

1,638 - 7s + 5s = 1,268

-2s = -370

s = 185

g = 234 - s = 234 - 185 = 49

so, we know

185 student tickets were sold for 5×185 = $925

49 general tickets were sold for 7×49 = $343
