Answer: C = $37.5

Explanation:

Given information

Price of one ticket = $8.50

Convenience fee = $3.50

Number of tickets = 4

Given expression

C = 8.50t + 3.50

Substitute the value of the ticket into the expression

C = 8.50 (4) + 3.50

Simplify by multiplication

C = 34 + 3.5

Simplify by addition

C = $37.5

Hope this helps!! :)
