A) Cost general admission ticket = $10, Cost senior discounted ticket = $8
B) Cost general admission ticket = $8, Cost senior discounted ticket = $10
C) Cost general admission ticket = $1, Cost senior discounted ticket = $1.25
D) Cost general admission ticket = $12, Cost senior discounted ticket = $14

Answer 1

The cost of each ticket cannot be determined with the given information.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the cost of each ticket, we can set up an equation using the given information:

Revenue = 10x + 8y

Since the revenue on opening night was $13,900, we can substitute this value into the equation:

13,900 = 10x + 8y

To solve for x and y, we need another equation. However, without any additional information, we cannot determine the exact cost of each ticket. So, the answer cannot be determined with the given information.
