before using the coupon?

Respuesta :

The price of a ticket before using the coupon is 10.25

Her family buys 6 tickets

They pay $52. 50 altogether for their tickets

They have a coupon for $1. 50 off each ticket.

Number of tickets purchased = 6

Coupon off per ticket = 1.50

Total Amount paid for tickets = $52.50

Let x = initial price of ticket

6 * (x - 1.50) = 52.50

6x - 9 = 52.50

6x = 52.50 + 9

6x = 61.50

x = 61.50 / 6

x = 10.25

The price of a ticket before using the coupon is 10.25
