Math Question
![At a carnival, food tickets cost \( \$ 2 \) each and ride tickets cost \( \$ 3 \) each. A total of \( \$ 1,240 \) was collected at the carnival. The number of food tickets sold was 10 less than twice the number of ride tickets sold.
The system of equations represents \( x \), the number of food tickets sold, and \( y \), the number of ride tickets sold.
\[
\begin{array}{r}
2 x+3 y=1240 \\
x=2 y-10
\end{array}
\]
How many of each type of ticket were sold?
180 food tickets and 293 ride tickets
180 food tickets and 350 ride tickets
293 food tickets and 180 ride tickets
