Answer:

30 Tickets

Explanation:

In the question, it said that $40 is the entrance fee. Then, it said that visitors purchase additional tickets for rides, games, and food. This means that EACH ticket is 2 dollars.

Hence, $40 (entrance fee) + $2 (each ticket price) x (the number of tickets spent) = 100 (total amount of money).

So, the equation should be 40 + 2x = 100, which means x = 30.

100 - 40 = 60

60/2 = 30

30 tickets can be purchased

Answer:

2 tickets because round

Explanation:

make an equation: 100=40x+2 and solve

2.45 tickets so only two

40+40 =80

100-80=20

but 100-2=98 so there is only 18$ left so not enough for another ticket
