Bruh
so toal cost=28 right?

total cost=total cost of water+total cost of tickets
water=3
subsitute 28=total cost and 3=total cost of water

28=3+total cost of tickets
remember we can do anything to an equaton as long as you do it to both sides

28=3+total cost of tickets
subtract 3 from both sides
28-3=3-3+total cost of tickets
25=0+cost of tickets
25=cost of tickets

if he bought 5 tickets, how much does each cost
25=5tickets
divide both sides by 5
25/5=5/5tickets
5=1tickets

answer is 1 ticket cost $5.00

equation is
total cost=water+tickets
28=3+5tickets
