Question

Linda was selling tickets for the school play. She sold 10 more adult tickets than children tickets and she sold twice as many senior tickets as children tickets. Find an expression for the total number of tickets sold by Linda.

Answer 1

Answer:X+(X+10)+(2X)

Explanation:

Lets say X is the amount of children tickets sold.

So she sold some kid tickets and we get an X

So X

and then she sold ten more than X tickets to adults

So now we have

X+(X+10)

And then she sold twice as many senior tickets than kids tickets

so now we have

X+(X+10)+(2X)

hope that helped at all!
