Question

Alicia purchased tickets to a local comedy club for 5 adults and 2 children. The total cost was $161. The cost of a child's ticket eas $7 less than the cost of an adult's ticket. Find the price of an adult's ticket and a child's ticket.

Answer 1

Answer:

adult's tickets = 25

child's ticket = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

adult's ticket = x

child's ticket = y= x-7

total ticket cost = 5x+2(x-7) = 161

7 x -14 = 161

7x = 175

adult's ticket Cost x = 25

child's ticket cost = 25-7 = 18
