Answer:
Actually, the prompt says that the cost per person is greater by $12, not the total cost.
In Bhavin's solution, x = cost per person with 40 passengers and y = cost per person w/ 36 passengers.
Therefore, y = x + 12 because the prompt says that cost/person w/ 36 is $12 greater than cost/person w/ 40.
