Question

Mr. and Mrs. Garcia took their three children to see a matinee on Saturday . They spent a total of $55.50,1 which included $29.25 at the concession stand. Each of the movie tickets cost the same amount. Which equation shows the cost of each ticket,t ?

Answer 1

n= number of tickets purchased= 5 people went to the movies
t= cost of each ticket

$55.50 - $29.25= n * t
$55.50 - $29.25= 5t
OR
$55.50= 5t + $29.25

ANSWER: $55.50 - $29.25= 5t OR
$55.50= 5t + $29.25 (there were no equations to choose from, but it should look something like one of these).

Hope this helps! :)
