Mr and mrs smith buy tickets for themselves and their four children. the cost of an adult ticket is ? 6 more than the adult ticket. the total cost of the six tickets is ? 40.50 work out the cost of an adult ticket. in your working let c be the cost of the child ticket and a be the cost of the adult ticket.

child's ticket =  4.75        adult ticket=10.75.

Step-by-step explanation:

The cost of an adult ticket is 6 more than that of a child ticket, so will be denoted by c+6. Now, we are told that the cost of four child tickets and two adult tickets is 40.50, so we can put this in an equation and solve for c:

(c+6)+(c+6)+c+c+c+c=40.50

6c+12=40.50

6c=28.50

c=4.75

Therefore the cost of a child's ticket (c) is 4.75 and the cost of an adult ticket (c+6) is 10.75.
