Answer:

$140

Explanation:

Given: Ticket cost $28 each. Zach's mom has a coupon for half-off. Both of Zach's parents are going plus 8 children including Zach.

To find: The total ticket cost for the group.

Solution:

We have,

Number of children going is 8, and two parents. So, total number people going at the amusement park is
8+2=10

Cost of each ticket is $28

So, total cost
=28* 10=280

It is given that Zach's mom has a coupon for half-off.

After applying the coupon, the total cost is
280*(1)/(2) =140

Hence, after applying the coupons the total ticket cost for the group is $140.
