The cost of x tickets can be calculated by multiplying the number of tickets (x) by the cost of each ticket.
The cost of each adult ticket is $5, and there is an additional $1 for tax per ticket. So, the total cost per ticket is $5 + $1 = $6.
To find the cost of x tickets, you can multiply the total cost per ticket ($6) by the number of tickets (x):
Cost of x tickets = $6 * x
Therefore, the cost of x tickets is $6x.
To determine the cost of x tickets, we need to apply the pricing for each ticket.
First, multiply the number of tickets, x, by the cost for each adult ticket, $5. This gives us 5x.
Next, consider the additional cost per ticket for tax, which is $1. Since x tickets are being purchased, the total additional tax cost would be x * $1, which simplifies to x.
To calculate the total cost, sum up the cost for the tickets and the tax: 5x + x.
Combining like terms, we get 6x.
Therefore, the cost of x tickets would be 6x dollars.
