Answer 2

Answer:

The price of one movie ticket without a coupon would be $9.

Step-by-step explanation:

one movie ticket: x

$42 = 6(x- 2)

$42 = 6x- $12

Move the 12 to the other side.

 42  = 6x  - 12

+ 12            +12

____________

 54  = 6x

Now divide 6 from both sides.

  $\frac{54}{6}$ = $\frac{6x}{6}$

  9 = x
