Answer:  $74

Step-by-step explanation:

Let C represent the cost of a coach ticket

Let B represent the cost of a business ticket

Washington: 150C +  50B = 18,450

NY City:         170C + 100B = 27,280

Solve the system using the Elimination method:

-2(150C +  50B = 18,450)   →   -300C - 100B = -36,900

1(170C + 100B = 27,280)   →     170C + 100B =  27,280  

                                                 -130C             =  - 9,620

                                               ÷ -130                 ÷   -130    

                                                          C            =      74

Answer:  $74

Step-by-step explanation:

Let C represent the cost of a coach ticket

Let B represent the cost of a business ticket

Washington: 150C +  80B = 22,860

NY City:         170C + 100B = 27,280

Solve the system using the Elimination method:

-2(150C +  50B = 18,450)   →   -300C - 100B = -36,900

1(170C + 100B = 27,280)   →     170C + 100B =  27,280  

                                                -130C             =  - 9,620

                                              ÷ -130                 ÷   -130    

                                                         C            =      74
