The fall festival charges $0.75 per ticket for the rides. kendall bought 18 tickets for rides and spent a total of $33.50 at the festival. she only spent her money on ride tickets and admission into the festival. the price of admission is the same for everyone. use y to represent the total cost and x to represent the number of ride tickets. (a) define your variables. (b) write a linear equation to calculate the cost for anyone who only pays for festival admission and rides. (c) explain your answer to part b.

(a)

Let's assume

y is total cost

x is number of ride tickets

(b)

Since, this is linear relationship

so, we can assume equation as

The Fall Festival charges $0.75 per ticket for the rides

so,

we can plug it

Kendall bought 18 tickets for rides and spent a total of $33.50 at the festival

so, we have

at x=18 , y=33.50

we can use it to find b

now, we can solve for b

we can plug it back

and we get

(c)

we got

here ,

y is the cost for anyone who only pays for festival admission and rides

x is number of admission

so, our equation will give total cost

take good notes.

do your homework.

use mnemonics and other tricks.

do practice tests.
