The cost of one adult ticket is $7.5 and one child ticket is $3.5

Julia will pay $48 for 5 adult tickets and 3 child tickets.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let,

Cost of one adult ticket = x

Cost of one child ticket = y

According to given statement;

3x+5y=40    Eqn 1

x+5y=25      Eqn 2

Subtracting Eqn 2 from Eqn 1

(3x+5y)-(x+5y)=40-25\\3x+5y-x-5y=15\\2x=15

Dividing both sides by 2

\frac{2x}{2}=\frac{15}{2}\\x=7.5

Putting x=2.5 in Eqn 1

3(7.5)+5y=40\\22.5+5y=40\\5y=40-22.5\\5y=17.5

Dividing both sides by 5

\frac{5y}{5}=\frac{17.5}{5}\\y=3.5

The cost of one adult ticket is $7.5 and one child ticket is $3.5

5 adult tickets = 5*7.5 = $37.5

3 child tickets = 3*3.5 = $10.5

Total = 37.5+10.5 =$48

Julia will pay $48 for 5 adult tickets and 3 child tickets.

I need to solve for x - 6(2x-5)=-(x+4)
sdas [7]
Distribute
x-12x+30=-x-4

Combine like terms
-11x+30=-x-4

Add x to both sides
-10x+30= -4

Subtract 30 from both sides
-10x=-34

Divide both sides by -10
x=3.4

Final answer: x=3.4
