Mr. And Mrs. Garcia took their three children to see a matinée on Saturday. They spent a total of $55.50, which included $29.25 at the concession stand. Each of the movie tickets cost the same amount. Which equation shows the cost of each ticket, t?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Since the total amount of money spent is 55.50 included 29.25 at the concession stand, and all three tickets cost the same we have:

3t + 29.25 = 55.50

3t               = 55.50 - 29.25

3t               = 26.25

t                 = 26.25/3 = 8.75
