Answer:

C) $9.00

Step-by-step explanation:

  1. You're trying to find the value of x.
  2. 4x + 12 = 48   Subtract 12 from both sides to get:
  3. 4x = 36     Then, divide each side by 4 to get:
  4. x = 9

For this case we have that the cost of a ticket is given by the variable "x". We have the following equation:

[tex]4x + 12 = 48[/tex]

By clearing "x" we have:

We subtract 12 on both sides of the equation:

[tex]4x = 48-12\\4x = 36[/tex]

Dividing between 4 on both sides of the equation:

[tex]x = \frac {36} {4}\\x = 9[/tex]

Then, a ticket costs $ 9.00
