You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Let, price of individual child ticket is $x, and price of individual adult ticket is $y.
\n" ); document.write( "Now, on Friday we can write an equation is 55x+20y=200....(1).
\n" ); document.write( "and on Saturday we can write an equation is 72x+36y=306.....(2).
\n" ); document.write( "so, Equation 1: 55x+20y=200
\n" ); document.write( " Equation 2: 72x+36y=306
\n" ); document.write( "now, we are going to solve both equastions.
\n" ); document.write( "you may use http://www.webmath.com/solver2.html to solve equestions.
\n" ); document.write( "after solving you will find x=2 and y=4.5
\n" ); document.write( "Hence, we can say that the cost of child ticket is $2, and the cost of adult ticket is $4.5.
\n" ); document.write( "
