4a + 20s = 115
5a + 23s = 135.25

Answer with Step-by-step explanation:

Let a represents the cost of one adult ticket

and s represents the cost of one student ticket

Mr. Lowe paid $115 for 4 adult tickets and 20 student tickets.

i.e. 4a+20s=115

Mrs. Tucker paid $135.25 for 5 adult tickets and 23 student tickets.

i.e. 5a+23s=135.25

We get system of equations:

4a+20s=115

5a+23s=135.25

On comparing the above system with

4a + As = 115

5a + 23s = B

We get

A=20

and B=135.25
