Explain how you went about finding a solution to the problem. We want to go to zoo. 7 adult tickets and 7 kids tickets equal 50 dollars. Adult tickets are twice as expensive as the kid’s ticket. How much do the tickets cost?

Answer:

Cost of Kid's tickets =16.66

Cost of Adult's ticket =33.34

Explanation:

Adult Tickets=7

Kids Tickets=7

Both total = 50$

So 14 tickets =50$

Now: Lets the cost of kid's ticket=x

The Cost of Adult's tickets be 2x

=so (x+2x)=50$

=3x=50$

=x=16.67 for 7tickets

Cost of Kid's tickets =16.66

Cost of Adult's ticket =33.34

Hope It Helps
