Answer: Reserved = 431, General Admission = 1356
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the Reserved tickets.
Let y represent the General Admission tickets.
Cost Equation: 4x + 3y = 5792
Quantity Equation: x + y = 1787
Use Elimination Method:
4x + 3y = 5792 → 1(4x + 3y = 5792) → 4x + 3y = 5792
x + y = 1787 → -3( x + y = 1787) → -3x - 3y = -5361
x = 431
Now substitute x = 431 into one of the original equations:
x + y = 1787
431 + y = 1787
y = 1356
