An adult ticket to a corn maze costs $4 more than a child ticket. A senior ticket costs $3 more than a child ticket. Manuel's family has 2 children, 1 adult, and 2 seniors. Amelia's family has 3 children and 2 adults. Do the two families pay the same amount for the tickets to the maze? If not, who pays more? Use c to represent the cost of a child ticket. Help me please!!!

Answer:

No, Manuel's family pays more

Step-by-step explanation:

A = C + 4

S = C + 3

Manuel

C + C + C + 4 + C + 3 + C + 3 = 5c + 10

Amelia

C + C + C + C + 4 + C + 4 = 5c + 8

5c + 10 vs 5c + 8

5c + 10 = more
