Answer: Equation that represents this situation is 5(x+17) = 1495,
Price of one ticket is 282
Step-by-step explanation:
Here x represents the price of one ticket,
Also, a person bought travel insurance that costs $17 per ticket.
Hence, the total cost of a person = x + 17
⇒ The total cost of 5 person = 5 ( x + 17 )
But, According to the question,
5 ( x + 17 ) = 1495
⇒ x + 17 = 299
⇒ x = 299 - 17
⇒ x = 282
Hence, the price of one ticket = $ 282
