Question

To enter a local fair, one must pay an entrance fee and pay for the number of ride tickets he/she wants. Admission to the fair is given by the equation f(x) = .50x + 10, where x represents the number of tickets purchased and f(x) represents the total price. How much is the entrance fee?

A) $10
B) $0.50
C) $10.50
D) Not enough information.

Answer 1

i think, it’s ‘d’ not enough information. because, x refers to the number of tickets purchased. but there is no other information about purchasing for the number of rides. i might be wrong, but just trust ur instincts lol

Answer 2

A) $10

Explanation:

From the equation below,

f(x) = 0.50x + 10

The x is dependent unto 0.50 and 10 is just a single form.

$10 must be the entrance fee and 0.50 is how much each ride costs.
