Answer 1

Answer: 175

Step-by-step explanation:

Let say

x the number of ticket at $6

y the number of ticket at $10

z the number of ticket at $12

500 total tickets were sold : x+y+z=500

the total income from ticket sales were $4.500: 6*x+10*y+12*z=4500

the combined number of $6 and $10 tickets was four times the

number of $12 tickets sold: x+y=4*z

x=175
