Question

At the circus, 3 adult tickets and 4 child tickets cost $47, and 6 adult tickets and 2 child tickets cost $64. Which system of linear equations below can be used to determine the price of each ticket? Let x represent the cost of an adult ticket and y represent the cost of a child ticket. A. B. C. D.

Answer 1

Answer:

The adult tickets cost $9 each. The child tickets cost $5 each.

X = $9 and Y = $5

Step-by-step explanation:

$9 x 6 = $54

$5 x 2 = $10

Add them and you get $64.

For the first one, do the same.

$9 x 3 = $27

$5 x 4 = $20

Add them and you get $47
