Price of one adult ticket is $9 and price of one student ticket is also $9.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let,
Adult ticket = x
Student ticket = y
According to given statement;
x+2y=27 Eqn 1
2x+2y=36 Eqn 2
Subtracting Eqn 1 from Eqn 2;
[tex](2x+2y)-(x+2y)=36-27\\2x+2y-x-2y=9\\x=9[/tex]
Putting x=9 in Eqn 1;
[tex]9+2y=27\\2y=27-9\\2y=18[/tex]
Dividing both sides by 2;
[tex]\frac{2y}{2}=\frac{18}{2}\\y=9[/tex]
Price of one adult ticket is $9 and price of one student ticket is also $9.
