here, easy:
OpenStudy (anikate):
so we know she bought 2 tickets
OpenStudy (anikate):
and now she is in debt by –$33.04 because she bought 2 tickets
OpenStudy (anikate):
the question asks how much each ticket costs
OpenStudy (anikate):
so do you know what to do from here?

do i subtract 33.04 from 2
OpenStudy (anikate):
no...
OpenStudy (anikate):
use division because we need to divide to find out how much EACH ticket costs
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok so divide 33.04 from 2
OpenStudy (anikate):
if 2 tickets = $33.04
then
1 ticket= ?

try it and tell me what you get
OpenStudy (anonymous):
oh hold on
OpenStudy (anikate):
btw the question doesnt say he started with an initial amount in his pocket, so that means, he has 0$ right now thats why he is in debt by $33.04, thats why it is negative.
-$33.04 is the amount he is in debt, for buying 2 tickets
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so i divide 33.04 with 1
OpenStudy (anikate):
he doesnt have money to pay back. so the answer will be in negative. remember this. DEBT ALWAYS MEANS -

oh so -33.04
OpenStudy (anikate):

OpenStudy (anonymous):
ohh ok
OpenStudy (anikate):
