Question

The cost of performance tickets and beverages for a family of four can be modeled using the equation 4x + 12 = 48, where x

represents the cost of a ticket. How much is one ticket?
$3.00

Answer 1

The cost of one ticket is $9

Explanation:

we have

4x+12=48

where

x represents the cost of a ticket

Solve for x

Subtract 12 both sides

4x=48-12

4x=36

Divide by 4 both sides

x=36/4=9

therefore

The cost of one ticket is $9
