$225 = $15 a + $ 10 c

Given,

Total price = $225

Cost of concert ticket for adults= $15

Cost of concert ticket for children = $10

System of equation to represent scenario

a is variable for adult

c is variable for children

Now,

Total price =  $15 a + $ 10 c

$225 = $15 a + $ 10 c

b.) 160 miles on a 5 gallons car

step-by-step explanation:

240/10=24 miles/gallon

160/5=32 miles/gallon

30/1=30 miles/gallon

168/6= 28 miles/gallon

32 miles/gallon is the most amount, so this is the best.
