There are 25 students in Ms. Jackson's fifth-grade class. The students want to go on a field trip to a museum. The cost of admission to the museum for the 25 students is $625. The cost of the bus is $250.

The students plan to sell raffle tickets to pay for the trip. Each raffle ticket is sold for $5. How many tickets will each student in the class have to sell?​

Answer:

175 tickets

Explanation:

The total cost is 875

y = mx

The y is the total cost. The m is the cost of a ticket and x is the number of tickets that need to be sold

875 = 5x Divide both sides by 5

175 = x
