Question

I went to the movies and bought 4 tickets. It cost me 23 dollars for the tickets after I applied my 5 dollar Tuesday discount. Create an equation for this situation where x is cost of each ticket. How much did each ticket cost? (answer asap pls)

Answer 1

each ticket=$7.

x=7

Explanation:

The total price of your tickets AFTER applying your $5 discount was 23.

Therefore, the price of 4 tickets would be 23+5, aka 28.

We can first begin with,

4x-5=23

4x=23+5

4x=28

x=7.

Answer 2

x= 5.75$

Explanation:

23 divided by 4 = 5.75$ (without the discount it is 10.75$)
