Answer:

450 students and 300 adults

Step-by-step explanation:

how many adults (a) and how many students (s) attended.

-----

Quantity:: a + s = 750 tickets

Value:::: 2.5a+s = 1200 dollars

------------------

Subtract and solve for "a":

1.5a = 450

---

a = 300 (# of adults attending)

---------

s = 750-300 = 450 (# of students attending)
