Let the number of adults be n. Each adult ticket costs $9, so the cost of n adult tickets is 9n. There is only one child, and a child's ticket is $6, so the cost of the child's ticket is 6. Adding the costs, you get 9n + 6. The total cost is $78, but the expression representing the total cost is 9n + 6, so 9n + 6 must equal 78. That is the equation.
9n + 6 = 78
