Answer 2

The price of each ticket is $8.

Explanation:

Let us assume that the price of each ticket be x.

As given

A family of 6 spent $74 at the movie theater.

They bought $26 worth of snacks and a ticket for each family member.

Than the equation becomes

6x + 26 = 74

6x = 74 - 26

6x = 48

`x = (48)/(6)`

x = $8

Therefore the cost of the ticket is $8 .
