A group of 5 people paid for general admission to the museum. Some of the people also bought movie tickets. The whole group spent a total of $108 for general admission tickets and movie tickets. Write and equation that can used to find x, the number of movie tickets purchased.

5 k + x m   = 108   is the needed equation.

k  : Cost of 1 general admission ticket

x  : Number of movie tickets purchased.

m : cost of 1 movie ticket.

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of people who visited the museum = 5

The total amount spent on general admission and movie tickets  = $108

x : the number of movie tickets purchased

Let us assume the cost of each ticket  = $ m

So, the cost of x tickets  = x ( cost of 1 ticket) = x ( $m) = m x  

Also, the general admission amount  for 1 person  = $ k

⇒ General admission amount for 5 people  = 5 x ( $k)  = 5 k

So, according to the question:

The general admission + Amount +  cost of x movie tickets  = $ 108

$ 5 k + x m   = 108

So, here: 5 k + x m   = 108

k: Cost of 1 general admission ticket

x: Number of movie tickets purchased.

m : cost p=of 1 movie ticket.

Hence, the needed  equation is  5 k + x m   = 108.
