The fall festival charges $0.75 per ticket for the rides. kendall bought 18 tickets for rides and spent a total of $33.50 at the festival. she only spent her money on ride tickets and admission into the festival. the price of admission is the same for everyone. use y to represent the total cost and x to represent the number of ride tickets. (a) define your variables. (b) write a linear equation to calculate the cost for anyone who only pays for festival admission and rides (c) explain your answer to part b. i need asapl

y = 0.75x+20

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that there is an admission ticket fixed and extra cost of 0.75 per ticket for the rides.

This means even if there is no ride used, enterer has to pay a fixed amount for admission.

Let us find out this admission cost from the given information

If y is the total cost and x no of rides

a) x is the no of rides and y the total cost

b) y = 0.75x+20 is the linear equation to calculate the cost for anyone who only pays for festival admission and rides

(c)

Total cost = Admission charges +0.75 * no of ride tickets.

then y = 0.75x+C

where C is the admission fee

Kendall bought 18 tickets i.e. x= 18 and y = 33.50

33.50 = 0.75(18)+C

33.50=13.50+C

C = 33.50-13.50 = 20.00

Hence admission fee = 20
