Afamily buys 5 airplane tickets and travel insurance that costs $17 per ticket. the total cost is $1,495. let x represent the price of one ticket.

So x represents the price of one ticket,

A person bought travel insurance that costs $17 per ticket.

Total cost of a person = x + 17

The total cost of 5 person = 5 ( x + 17 )

According to the question though;

5 ( x + 17 ) = 1495

x + 17 = 299

x = 299 - 17

x = 282

So, the price of one ticket = $282
