Question

The cost of movie tickets at Central Cinema just changed. The old price and the new price are shown for adults and children. How much more does it cost for tickets for 2 adults and 3 children at the new prices then at the old prices?

Answer 1

can u give the prices for the tickets?

An adult ticket costs $2 more than a child ticket

Let x and (x + $2)represent the cost of the child and adult ticket respectively

2(x+ $2) + 3x = $34

now solving for x

2x+ $4 + 3x = $34

5x = $30

x = $6 , the cost of the child ticket.

the cost of adult ticket $6+2=$8
