Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let n represent the number of friends who went to the movies with you.

Then ($12/ticket)n + $15 = $75.  Solving for n, we get:

$75 - $15           $60

---------------- = ----------------- = 5          so a total of 5 friends went with you.

($12/ticket)     ($12/ticket)
