Children’s tickets are $4, adult tickets are $14

Explanation:

4a+6c=80

If they made $4 more dollars on the second day than the first by selling one extra child ticket then we know a child’s ticket is $4 per ticket.

4a+6*4=80
4a+24=80
4a=56
14=a

So each adult ticket costs $14.

You can check by filling in $14 and $4 for each equation.

4*14+6*4=80

4*14+7*4=84

Ifound this on google “that means that the graph of a function with direct variation has these features: it is a straight line: because the slope is the ratio y/x = k. it passes through the origin (0,0): because y = kx = k (0) = 0.” i hope this you for what your looking for
