Shadontay is going to the movies with two friends he buys a small popcorn that cost $2 the tickets and 1 popcorn cause a total $29 how much does one ticket cost
(29 - 2)/3 = $_______ each
He bought three tickets(himself and his friends),so let total NO of tickets be 3T.SO equ=3T+$2=$29,3T=$29-$2,3T=$27,T=$9
To find out how much one ticket costs, we can break down the information given.
Let's assume that the cost of one ticket is "x" dollars.
Shadontay buys a small popcorn for $2, so we have:
Cost of 1 popcorn = $2
The total cost of tickets and popcorn is $29, so we can write an equation:
(x * 3) + 2 = 29
To solve for "x", we need to isolate it:
(x * 3) = 29 - 2
(x * 3) = 27
Dividing both sides by 3:
x = 27 / 3
x = 9
Therefore, one ticket costs $9.
