Answer:

[tex]x + y = 400 \\ 9x + 2.50y = 2300[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Since X and Y represent the total number of adults and total number of children respectively,

total number of people attended the movie

[tex]x + y = 400 \\ [/tex]

price for the ticket for adult is $9 and x adults are attending movie so total sale for adults is 9x

The price for the ticket for child is $2.50 and y children are attending the movie so total sale for children is 2.50y

which is total 2300.

So

[tex]x + y = 400 \\ 9x + 2.50y = 2300| [/tex]
