Answer:

Adult ticket: $7

Child ticket: $2

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up a system of equations where a represents the cost of one adult ticket and c is the cost of one child ticket:

2a + 3c = 20

a + 4c = 15

Solve by elimination by multiplying the bottom equation by -2:

2a + 3c = 20

-2a -8c = -30

Add them together:

-5c = -10

c = 2

Now, we can plug in 2 as c to find the value of a:

2a + 3c = 20

2a + 3(2) = 20

2a + 6 = 20

2a = 14

a = 7

Find the area of a rectangle with a perimeter of 12 meters and a base of 4 meters

stepladder [879]

Considering the perimeter (P)
$p = 2 \times b + 2 \times h$
where b is the base and h is the height, then
$12 = 2 \times 4 \times 2 \times h \\ \\ h = \frac{12 - (2 \times 4)}{2} \\ \\ h = 2$
Being the area (A)
$a = b \times h \\ \\ a = 4 \times 2 \\ \\ a = 8 {m}^{2}$
