Answer: $166.67

Explanation:

4(t + 25) = 4(t + 50) - 4(0.15t)

Step 1: Simplify the equation given.

4(t + 25) = 4(t + 50) - 4(-0.15t)

4t + 100 = 4t + 200 - 0.6t

4t + 100 = 3.4t + 200

Step 2: Move all the variables to one side.

4t + 100 = 3.4t + 200

-3.4t -3.4t

0.6t + 100 = 200

Step 3: Solve the equation for t.

0.6t + 100 = 200

- 100 -100

0.6t = 100

100 ÷ 0.6 = 166.6667 = t

Step 4: Since we are talking about money round the answer to the nearest hundredth.

166.6667 → 166. 67

The ticket price $166.67 will have the same total cost for both airlines.
