Question

A 7

th grade class is taking an end-of-year trip to an amusement park. Each student will pay $48
. The cost covers the $22
admission fee, a ticket to the aquatic show, and a ticket to the firework display. The tickets to the aquatic show and fireworks display are the same price.

What is the price of each ticket?

Answer 1

Answer: $13

Explanation:

Let x be the price of each ticket (to the aquatic show and fireworks display).

Then, we know that:

$48 = $22 + 2x

Simplifying this equation, we get:

$48 - $22 = 2x

$26 = 2x

x = $13

Therefore, the price of each ticket is $13.
