The correct answer is C
.......................
Answer:
c = 20d + 15
Step-by-step explanation:
answer choices may help if the answer is not one of the choices; but here is the answer that it should be:
20 dollars per day is 20 times the length of rental.
15 is a cost that is added and does not change.
c = the total cost therefore:
c = 20d + 15
Let: A = adult tickets; S = student tickets
a. 498 = 5A + 3S
118 = A + S
b. S = 118 - A
498 = 5A + 3(118 - A)
498 = 5A + 354 - 3A
498 - 354 = 2A
144 = 2A
A = 72
118 = S + A
118 = 72 + S
118 - 72 = S
S = 46
c. Therefore, there were 72 adult tickets and 46 student tickets sold.
