to find the # of children's tickets, you just solve
35(2c) + 20c = 1890
then double that for the adults.
The Bishop's Peak 4-H club is having its annual fundraising dinner. Adults pay $35 apiece and children pay $20 apiece. If the number of adult tickets sold is twice the number of children's tickets sold, and the total income for the dinner is $1,890, how many of each kind of ticket did the 4-H club sell?
