Whoever answers with an explanation will get brainiest

Answer 1

Answer:

Price of Adult's ticket is $16 and Price of child's ticket $15

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume,

price of single adult ticket = 'x'

price of single child ticket = 'y'

now, according to the question, we have;

3x + 4y = 108            ......................( equation 1)

2x + 3y = 77              ......................( equation 2)

by solving these 2 equations , we get;

x = 16 and y = 15
