Question
The drama club sold $779 worth of tickets to the school play. Student tickets cost $3 apiece and tickets for everyone else cost $5 each. What equation relates the number of student tickets that were sold, s, and the number of other tickets that were sold, t, written in standard form?

Just add up the revenue from each kind of ticket. The total must be 779:
3s+5t = 779
3s+5t = 779
