Step-by-step explanation:

so each ticket is $8 so thats going to be 8x.There are 5 friends so you pay for 5 tickets they buy small bag of popcorn so let that have a variable of.p. then they spend a total of 62.50.

62.50=8(5)+p

62.50=40+p

-40. -40

22.50=p

so the 5 small bags of popcorn costs $22.50
