A drama club sells tickets to a school play. The school play is performed on Saturday and Sunday, and the club sells student tickets and adult tickets at different prices per ticket. - On Saturday, the club sells 60 student tickets and 140 adult tickets and raises $1,420. - On Sunday, the club sells 72 student tickets and 200 adult tickets and raises $1,960. Which system of equations can be used to determine the price of each student ticket, x, and the price of each adult ticket, y?

a)

60x + 72y = 1420

140x + 200y = 1960

b)

60x + 140y = 1420

72x + 200y = 1960

c)

60x + 72x = 1960

140y + 200y = 1420

d)

60x + 140y = 1960

72x + 200y = 1420
