The system of equations to find the cost of one adult ticket, a, and the cost of one child ticket, c are Roy's; 6a+2c=66 Elisa's 5a+4c=62.

<h3>What is a system of equations?</h3>

A system of equations is two or more equations that can be solved to get a unique solution. the power of the equation must be in one degree.

Let's consider adults tickets be a and child tickets be c

so

Roy's purchase

6a+2c=66------1

Elisa's purchase

5a+4c=62-------2

Hence, the system of equations

6a+2c=66------1

5a+4c=62-------2

solving simultaneously

6a+2c=66

5a+4c=62
