Question 721552: there are two types of tickets for a school play: student tickets and tickets for the general public. the total cost for one student ticketand one general public ticket is $10. the total cost for 6 student tickets and 6 general public tickets is $60. how much does a general public ticket cost?

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
s = student tickets
p = public tickets

s + p = 10
6s + 6p = 60

Equation 2 is the same as equation 1 multiplied by 6, so there is not enough information to solve the problem.
