Answer 2

The equation to determine how much George will pay for a student ticket is one thirdx + 15 = 19.

What are linear equation?

A linear equation only has one or two variables. No variables in a linear equation is raised to power greater than 1 or used as denominator of a fraction.

Now it is given that, price of adult ticket = $19.00

Let the price of student ticket be x.

Now it is given, the price of an adult ticket is one third the price of a student ticket plus $15.00

⇒ price of an adult ticket = one third price of a student ticket +  $15.00

⇒ 19 = one third x + 15

Hence,The equation to determine how much George will pay for a student ticket is one thirdx + 15 = 19.
