A family wants to take a trip to the water park over the summer. Tickets cost $10 for each child and $15 for each adult

The family has a total of $90 to spend on tickets to the water park. The equation 100 + 15y = 90 represents the total
cost of the trip to the water park and is graphed below.


Select all of the statements that are true about the situation.

If 3 children go to the water park, that means that 4 adults can go.

If 6 children go to the water park, that means that 3 adults can go.

If no adults go to the water park, then 6 children can go.

If no children go to the water park, then 6 adults can go.

The expression 10x in the equation represents the total cost of the children that go to the water park.

The expression 15y in the equation represents the total cost of the adults that go to the water park.

Answer/Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

$10 Child

$15 Adult

Total : $90

Select all of the statements that are true about the situation.

If 3 children go to the water park, that means that 4 adults can go.

3 Children = $10 Each ( 3(number of Children)x10(Money for each) = $30

4 Adults = $15 Each ( 4( number of Children)x15( Money for each) = $60

Then add both up $60+$30 = $90

Therefore this one is True. The Total of money to spend is $90.

=================================================================

If 6 children go to the water park, that means that 3 adults can go.

6 Children = $10 Each ( 6(number of Children)x10(Money for each) = $60

3 Adults = $15 Each ( 3( number of Children)x15( Money for each) = $45

Then add both up $60+$45 = $105

Therefore this one is False. The total of money to spend is only $90

=================================================================

If no adults go to the water park, then 6 children can go.

So 6 Children = $10 Each ( 6(number of Children)x10(Money for each) = $60

Therefore this one is True. The total of money to spend is $90 and after the children go to water park the still have $30 Dollar remain.

=================================================================

If no children go to the water park, then 6 adults can go.

So 6 Adults= $15 Each (6( number of Children)x15( Money for each) = $90

Therefore this one is True. The total of money to spend is $90.

=================================================================

The expression 10x in the equation represents the total cost of the children that go to the water park.

True

=================================================================

The expression 15y in the equation represents the total cost of the adults that go to the water park.
