Two types of tickets are available for a charity ball event: $18 for a reserved seat and $9 for general admission. The number of reserved seats available is 85 less than the number of tickets available for general admission. If the sale of tickets for the day was $3,600, how many seats were allotted for general admission?

Answer:

# of reserved seats = R;  # of general admission seats = G

                                                    G - R = 85

                                         $18R + $9G =$3600

Multiply 1st equation by 18:  18G - 18R = 1530

Rearrange 2nd equation:   $9G + $18R =$3600

Combine the equations:               27 G  =   5130

                                                       G  =  190

                                                       R  =  105
