Question

Tickets to a basketball game can be ordered online for a set price per ticket plus a $5.50 service fee. The total cost in dollars for ordering 5 tickets is $108.00. Which linear function represents c, the total cost, when x tickets are ordered?

Answer 1

A. C (x) = 5.50 + 20.50x

Explanation:

Got Correct On MyPath.

Answer 2

Let

c--------> the total cost

x------> the number of tickets

z------> the cost of one ticket without service fee

we know that

`108=5.50+5z`

solve for z

combine like terms

`5z=108-5.50`

`5z=102.50`

`z=\$20.50`

The linear function is equal to

`c=5.50+20.50x`

therefore

the answer is

`c=5.50+20.50x`
