Question

pls help! one week you spent $24 on 6 metro tickets and 4 bus tickets. the next week you spent $27 on 3 metro tickets and 7 bus tickets. how much would it cost to buy 5 metro tickets and 2 bus tickets?

Answer 1

Answer:

I will use x for # of subway tickets, and y for # of express bus tickets.

24 = 6x + 4y

27 = 3x + 7y

x = 2

y = 3

16 = 10 + 6

Answer is 16
