Question 32116: It costs 'a' dollars for an adult ticket to a reggae concert and 's' dollars for a student ticket. The difference between the cost of 12 adult tickets and 18 student tickets is $36. Write an equation that represents the relationship between 'a' and 's'.
I've tried arranging this on my own, an I'm not sure if this is right :
(12(a)-18(s))= 36

Is this correct? Answer by stanbon(48546) (Show Source):
