Fair rickets for 2 adults and 3 children cost $34. An adult ticket costs $2 more than a child ticket. What is the price of an adult ticket

Step-by-step explanation:

An adult ticket costs $2 more than a child ticket

Let x and (x + $2) represent the cost of the child and adult ticket respectively

2 (x + $2) + 3x = $34

now solving for x

2x + $4 + 3x = $34

5x = $30

x = $6, the cost of the child ticket.

the cost of adult ticket $6+2=$8
