Answer:

30 red beads

Step-by-step explanation:

The data collected by Jake shows that there are 1.5 times as many red beads as yellow beads.

Red beads + Yellow beads = 50 beads total:

1.5n            + n = 50, where n represents the number of yellow beads.

Simplifying this equation, we get 2.5n = 50, so that n = 20.

If there are 20 yellow beads, then there must be (50 - 20) red beads, or

30 red beads.

Answer:

16 ride tickets.

Step-by-step explanation:

The original entry fee is $4 so you can subtract that from 12. Now you have $8. So you would double 8 since $0.50 is half of $1. 8x2 is 16.
