Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation or expression is used to determine the total cost of buying carnival tickets.

the total cost is y

Also from the expression the cost of a ticket is $2.5

and x represents the number of tickets

now say x=5, that is 5 tickets, then the cost of buying the 5 tickets is given as

y=2.5(5)

y=12.5

Hence the cost of 5 tickets is $12.5
