The numbers by themselves represent the amount of dollars spent (4 and 49), but since you don’t know the amount of money each candy bar cost, you would put the amount of candy bars and a variable next to it to then solve ($5 per bar)

Answer: a ticket to the movie costs $8.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the cost of a movie ticket.
Let y represent the cost of a Soda.
Janice bought 3 movie tickets and 3 sodas and the total cost was $35.25. This means that
3x + 3y = 35.25 - - - - - - - - - -1
A ticket to the movie cost $5.25 more than a soda. This means that
x = y + 5.25
Substituting x = y + 25 into equation 1, it becomes
3(y + 5.25) + 3y = 35.25
3y + 15.75 + 3y = 35.25
6y = 35.25 - 15.75 = 19.5
y = 19.5/6 = 3.25
x = y + 5.25 = 3.25 + 5.25
x = 8.5
