Jacob bought some tickets to see his favorite singer. He bought some adult tickets and some childrens tickets, for a total of 9 tickets. The adult tickets cost $10 per ticket, and the children’s tickets cost $8 per ticket. He spent a total of $76. Which system of equations represents this word problem?

• a + c = 9

  10a + 8c = 76

• a + c = 9

  10a + 8c = -76

• a + c = 76

  10a - 8c = 9

• a - c = 9

  10a - 8c = 76
