Question

WILL AWARD MEDAL!!!
One adult and 3 student tickets cost $11.50. Three adult and 2 student tickets cost $17.00. How much does each kind of ticket cost?

Answer 1

do you know how to make this into an equation?

Answer 2

I might be wrong, but I'm pretty sure it would be:
x+3y=11.50
3x+2y=17.00
Is that right? I'm just not sure what to do from there. I know how to solve a problem like that with two equations and stuff, but I' not sure if I am supposed to solve them together or by themselves.

Thanks, @Landon34

Answer 17

Your equations are right. I know the prices, but I found it in a way that's pretty complicated. I could try to explain my thinking of it, if you want
