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

answer: 819.89 miles across america

step-by-step explanation:

step-by-step explanation:

points a and b are equidistant from the desired line, so the line you find by using them will go through point r.

using points other than a and b will give the desired line only if they are equidistant from r. if they are randomly located, the perpendicular line you create will not necessarily go through point r, hence will not be a solution to the problem.
