The five members of the Garcia family each buy train tickets. During the train ride, each family member buys a boxed lunch for $6.00. If the total cost of the trip is $240, what is the price of each train ticket? Show me the equation and show me the steps to solve it and finish with a sentence describing what a train ticket costs.

6.00 times 5 is 30. If you subtract 30 minus 240 you get 210. 210 divided by 5 family members is 42. Each ticket for the train cost 42 dollars per passenger.

Step-by-step explanation:

A train ticket costs $42

Step-by-step explanation:

5x + 30 = 240 (6 * 5 = 30, cost of lunch times 5 members of family)

5x = 240 - 30

5x = 210

x = 42

A train ticket costs $42.

x is the total time in minutes for the free response

you are given number of questions as 15 - m and time per item as 8 minutes

to find x multiply the two givens together:

x = 8 * (15-m) = 8(15-m)
