Answer: the system of equations are

3x + 2y = 170

4x + 6y = 360

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the price of a child's ticket in dollars.

Let y represent the price of an adult's ticket in dollars.

The Brown family paid 170 for 3 children and 2 adults. This would be expressed as

3x + 2y = 170

The Peckham family paid 360 for 4 children and 6 adults. This would be expressed as

4x + 6y = 360
