The table shows the cost of tickets to amuseum. The cost per ticket does notchange.Museum TicketsNumber ofTicketsTotal Cost1$2.752$5.503?$11.005$13.75Hi

Answer 1

From the given table, we can note a linear behavior, then, we can find the rate by taking two rows of our table:

`\text{rate}=(11.00-5.5)/(4-2)`

this rate must be preserved. It yields,

`\text{rate}=(5.5)/(2)=2.75`

As we can note,when we add $2.75 plus $2.75 we obtain $5.50 and so on. Then, for 3 tickets, we have

$5.50 + $2.75 = $8.25. Then, the answer is $8.75
