Algebra Challenge: The Amusement Park Trip

A group of students is going to an amusement park. They have two ticket options:

  • A standard ticket costs $25 per person.

  • A group discount ticket (for groups of 5 or more) costs $20 per person.

The total number of students going is 36, and the total amount spent on tickets is $770.

Using x to represent the number of students who bought standard tickets and y to represent the number of students who bought group discount tickets, set up a system of equations and solve for x and y.

Hint:

  • One equation should represent the total number of students.

  • The other equation should represent the total money spent.
