Question

Tickets to a baseball game cost $18.95, $12.95, or $9.95. A hot dog and soda combo costs $5.50. The Madison family is having a reunion. They buy 10 tickets in each price category and plan to buy 30 combos. What is the total cost for the tickets and meals

I GOT 583.5 JUST WANT A SECOND CHECK

Answer 1

You want to times each ticket price by 10 then add them together, then $5.50 by 30.

$18.95*10 = $189.50
$12.95*10 = $129.50
$9.95*10 = $99.50
$189.50+$129.50+$99.50 = $418.5

Then do $5.50*30 = $165

Then add them both together.
418.5 + 165 = 583.5

You were correct.

Answer 2

Hmmm Interesting: 189.5+129.5+99.5+53
I got 471.5 Dollars....

Because Look If they buy 10 tickets each category it be 18.95 times 10= 189.5
then 12.95 times= 129.5 , Then 9.95 times= 99.5.... Also if they plan to get 30 combos it be also 5.50 times 30,,, You add the answers and it will give you 471.5 dollars. You can try doing it in a caculator (:
