Answer:

$129

Explanation:

Let us represent:

Cost Adult tickets = x

Cost Children's tickets = y

The total cost of ticket = C =

A family goes to an amusement park adult tickets cost $21 children under 10 years of age pay $15

C = $21 × x + $15 × y

C = 21x + 15y

The total cost of 4 adult tickets and 3 children's tickets is calculated as:

C = 21 × 4 + 15 × 3

C = 84 + 45

C = $129
