#2# adult tickets and #2# child tickets will cost #$22.10#

Explanation:

Tickets to the county fair are #$8# for an adult and #$5# for a child.

So cost of #2# adult tickets and #2# child tickets will be

#$##8xx2+5xx2=16+10=26#

If we have a #15%# discount, the cost will be

#26xx(100-15)/100=(26xx85)/100=2210/100=22.10#
