5. Write and solve an algebraic equation.

Aaron and two friends went to the movies and spent a
total of $33. The group bought a box of popcorn to
share that cost $ 6. What was the cost of each movie
ticket?

Answer:

6 + (t x 2) = 33

T = Ticket Cost

6 - 6 + (t x 2) = 33 - 6

t x 2 = 27

t x 2/2 = 27/2

t = 13.5

Each ticket cost 13.50$
