Answer:

Expression which best represents the total money earned by the company from the sale of tickets is:

9.50(c+a)

Explanation:

A theater company charges $9.50 per ticket for people of all age groups.

if c represents the total number of children who bought tickets

Then, money earned by selling tickets to c children=$ 9.50c

if a represents the total number of adults who bought tickets

Then, money earned by selling tickets to a adults=$ 9.50a

Total money earned=$ (9.50c+9.50a)

= $ 9.50(c+a)

Hence, expression which best represents the total money earned by the company from the sale of tickets is:

9.50(c+a)
