A. $43.50
B. $52.50
C. $59.25
D. $66.00

Answer 1

To find the cost of admission for the family, multiply the cost per person by the number of people in the family. The total cost for the family is $39.75, so the answer is none of the above.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the cost of admission for the family, we need to multiply the cost per person by the number of people in the family. There are 2 adults and 1 child in the family. The cost for each adult is $15.75 and the cost for the child is $8.25.

So, the cost for the adults is $15.75 x 2 = $31.50.

The cost for the child is $8.25 x 1 = $8.25.

Adding the costs together, the total cost for the family is

$31.50 + $8.25 = $31.50+8.25

=$39.75.

Therefore, the correct answer is none of these.
