Question

Paige and her family went to the movies. They bought 4 tickets and paid $12 for popcorn. They spent $40. How much did each ticket cost?

I need equation and cost :)

Answer 1

Cost of tickets: $7. Equation: 40 = 4x + 12.

Explanation:

Answer 2

4*t +12 = 40

Each ticket cost 7 dollars

Explanation:

tickets + popcorn = total cost

4*t +12 = 40

Subtract 12 from each side

4t +12-12 = 40-12

4t = 28

Divide by 4

4t/4 = 28/4

t = 7

Each ticket cost 7 dollars
