Four friends buy tickets for two shows on consecutive nights. they use a coupon for $5 off each ticket. they pay a total of $416 for 8 tickets. write and solve an equation to find the original price of the tickets.

Number of friends = 4

Number of tickets for 2 days = 4 x 2 = 8

Off on each ticket was $5 therefore, for 8 tickets they got a total of 8 x 5 = $40 off

Now if they payed a total of $416 for 8 tickets which is the amount after they used a coupon to get $5 off each ticket, then you must add the amount that was waived off as a discount to find the original price of the tickets. To find this, we need to add $40 to $416 to get $456.

in mathematics, a function is a relationship between two variables such that the value of one of the variables, called the dependent variable, is determined by the value of the other variable, called the independent variable. there is a specific term we use to describe the set of independent variables of a function.
