Question

3.Angelo took a group of people to the movies and spent $80 on tickets. Adult tickets cost $10 and child tickets cost $6. The equation to represent his cost is 10A + 6C = $80. If there were 5 children in the group, how many adult tickets did he purchase? Show your work and use a complete sentence to explain your solution in the context of the original problem.

Answer 1

10A + 6C = $80
1) Substitute 5 for C.
10A+6(5)=80
2)Multiply 6*5.
10A+30=80
3)Subtract 30 from both sides
10A=50
4)Divide both sides by 10.
A=5
Angelo purchased 5 adult tickets.
