4x + 0.05(4x) = 105.00

x = $25

Answer: The price for each ticket is $525.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of tickets = 4

Total cost = $105.00

Rate of service charge = 5%

Let the original cost be 'x'.

According to question, we get that

[tex]4x+0.05\times 4x=105\\\\4x+0.2x=105\\\\4.2x=105\\\\x=\dfrac{105}{4.2}\\\\x=\$525[/tex]

Hence, the price for each ticket is $525.
