The cost of admission for the Flemington Aquarium is $11.50 for each senior citizen, $14.75 for each adult and $7.25 for each child. A family of 3 adults and 1 child plans to spend the day at the Flemington Aquarium. How much does admission for the family cost? What if two more tickets for admission are purchased for a total of $14.50? Explain how you can determine what type of tickets the family purchases

A) $51.5

B) two children tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the cost of admission for the Flemington Aquarium is $11.50 for each senior citizen, $14.75 for each adult and $7.25 for each child.

The cost of admission for the family of 3 adults and 1 child will be

(3 × 14.75) + (1 × 7.25)

44.25 + 7.25 = 51.5 dollars

What if two more tickets for admission are purchased for a total of $14.50?

Since there is no ticket of that amount, we can determine what type of tickets the family purchases by taking the amount of child tickets away from the amount. That is

14.5 - 7.25 = 7.25

The remaining money amount to child ticket again. We can therefore conclude that the two more tickets for admission purchased for a total of $14.50 are for 2 children tickets

y - y1 = m(x- x1)

y - (-5) = 2/3(x -0)

y + 5 = 2/3x

y = 2/3x - 5
