Answer:

The regular cost of each ticket is $30

Explanation:

Hi,

You and three friends means there was a total of 4 people. Your equation is...

4x - 20 = 100

Remember to add the -20 since there was a coupon that saved you $20.

Now solve...

4x - 20 = 100

+ 20 on both sides

4x = 120

Divide by 4 on both sides

x = 30

The regular cost of each ticket is $30

Hope this helps :)
