Can someone please help me???
The school that Kevin goes to is selling tickets to a fieldtrip. On the first day of ticket sales, the school sold 3 adult tickets and 1 child ticket for a total of $38. The school took in $52 on the second day by selling 3 adult tickets and 2 child tickets. Find the price of an adult ticket and the price of a child ticket.
$14 a ticket for children. Look at the differences between the two days and the costs. 3x = 24 (remove the child ticket and the cost of it from the first day) x=8 $8 a ticket for adults. Check these answers... 3*8 + 14 = 38 3*8 + 2 * 14 24 + 28 = 52
