Answer:

The price for both senior and child tickets are $9 each

Step-by-step explanation:

Since your just trying to find the price for senior citizen and child tickets, we'll use the equation for the first day:

4x + x = $45

5x = $45

x = 9

now plug it for 4x and x

4(9) = $36 <<divide $36 by 4 == $9

$9 for each child ticket
