Someone please help me

OpenStudy (one098):

Give me a variable.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What do you mean?

OpenStudy (one098):

Give me a letter(variable) because in order to write an equation to find out how many tickets of both adults and children were bought, we need variables.

OpenStudy (one098):

^expression not equation

OpenStudy (anonymous):

n can be C and adults can be A

OpenStudy (one098):

OK so now, they want you to write an expression based on the two variables you just gave me and the amount of money needed to pay per ticket. So now all that's left to do is plug in the numbers and there corresponding variables.. can you do that? I'll check it right after.

C+A=X if C=$8 and A=$12 ?
