Brandon earns a rebate each month on his meals and movie tickets. he earns $0.50 for each movie ticket and $2 for each meal. last month brandon purchased 22 movie tickets and earned $25. part a: create an equation that will determine the number of meals he purchased. (3 points)

This is the concept of simultaneous equations; We are required to create the equations modelling the above information.
Suppose the number of movie tickets was x and the number of meal tickets was y.
Therefore;
Total number of tickets was:
x+y=22
Total amount earned was:
0.5x+2y=25
The simultaneous equations representing the information is:
x+y=22
0.5x+2y=25

Just divide the x axis (the top) by 2 or multiply the y axis (the bottom) by 2
