Question 17 • Algebra II

Joylin win a 50 dollars gift card for the local movie theater. She uses the entire amount on the card to purchase tickets and snacks for her family. If Joylin spends 6 dollars more on tickets than she does on snacks, how much does Joylin spend on tickets?

Answer
A
28 dollars
B
31 dollars
C
19 dollars
D
22 dollars

Explanation

Let the amount spent on snacks be x dollars. Then tickets cost x + 6 dollars, and together they cost $50, so x + (x + 6) = 50. Solving gives x = 22, making the ticket cost $22 + $6 = $28. The correct choice is A, 28 dollars.
