The cost of a movie ticket is $8.00 for each adult and $6.00 for each child. Assume you have $40.00 to spend
on tickets. Write an equation in standard form to represent the number of adult tickets, B, and the number of
children's tickets, y, you can buy with your $40.00,

Answer:

The Equation is 8b + 6y = 40

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of adult tickets be b

Also let the number of child tickets be y

Given:

Cost of each adult ticket = $8.00

Cost of each child ticket = $6.00

Total Money need to spend on tickets  = $40.00

Hence the expression can be represented as Total Money need to spend on tickets is equal to Cost of each adult ticket multiply by number of adult tickets plus Cost of each child ticket multiply by number of child ticket.

Total Money need to spend on tickets = Cost of each adult ticket × number of adult tickets + Cost of each child ticket × number of child tickets

8b + 6y = 40

Hence equation which represent the number of adult tickets, b, and the number of  children's tickets, y, you can buy with your $40.00 is 8b + 6y = 40
