Answer: Each ticket costs $89.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let be x = ticket cost without the discount.
Given: Total 8th graders = 12
Discount = $34
Price of ticket after discount = x- 34
Total amount paid = $660
Total amount paid = (Price of ticket after discount) x (Total 8th graders )
[tex]\Rightarrow\ 660=(x-34)(12)[/tex]
Divide both sides by 12.
[tex]\Rightarrow\ 55=x-34[/tex]
Add 34 both sides , we get
[tex]\Rightarrow\ x= 55+34\Rightarrow\ x=89[/tex]
Hence, Each ticket costs $89.
