Answer 1

Answer:

A stadium has 49000 seats.  

Seats sell for $25 in Section A, z

$20 in Section B,-------------------x seats

$15 in Section C. ------------------y seats  

(x+y)=z  

25(x+y)+20x+15y=1052000

25x+25y+20x+15y=1052000

45x+40y=1052000

/5

9x+8y=210400------------------1

2x+2y=49000
