On the first day of ticket sales the school sold 3 senior citizen tickets and 1 child ticket for a total of $38. The school took
in $52 on the second day by selling 3 senior citizen tickets and 2 child tickets. Find the price of a senior citizen ticket and the price of a child ticket.
The answer is, senior tickets are 8 dollars each and child tickets are 14 dollars each
Step-by-step answer
On the second day they mad 52 dollars only buy having one more child meaning that children tickets cos more. First you subtract 38 to 52 (52-38). You will then get 14 and subtract 14 to 38. After you get 24 you have to divide by three to see how much each senior ticket cost. You should then get 8.
The x^2 over the x is like subtracting x from x^2, so the new equation would be 9-x/-3. You divide 9 by -3 to get the final answer of -3-x, or -x-3, which is E.
