Answer:
One kids ticket is $4.80 and one adult ticket is $9.60
Step-by-step explanation:
Create a system of equations where k is the cost of a kids ticket and a is the cost of an adult ticket:
6k + 2a = 48
k = 1/2a
Solve by substitution by substituting the second equation into the first one:
6k + 2a = 48
6(1/2a) + 2a = 48
Simplify and solve for a:
3a + 2a = 48
5a = 48
a = 9.6
Find the cost of a kids ticket by dividing this by 2, since they are on sale for half the price of adult tickets.
9.6/2
= 4.8
One kids ticket is $4.80 and one adult ticket is $9.60
