PLS HELP ME!!!!! Students are selling raffle tickets for a school fundraiser. They collect $24 for every 10 raffle tickets they sell. Suppose M is the amount of money the students collect for selling R raffle tickets. Write an equation that reflects the relationship between M and R.

Answer: M=2.4R

Explanation:

If 24 dollars are collected for every 10 tickets we can find the cost of each ticket like so...

24/10=2.4

so now we can set up our equation...

M=2.4R

this means we get M amount of money for R number of tickets sold at a rate of $2.40 each.
