For a large group of students, the Boston Ballet charges a flat rate of $50.00, plus $15.00 per ticket. How much would a school need to take a class of 25 students to see The Nutcracker? Use an equation with two variables to solve this problem.(1 point) Responses $1,265.00 $1,265.00 $50.00 $50.00 $375.00 $375.00 $425.00
The equation for the total cost (C) to take a class of 25 students to see The Nutcracker can be expressed as:
C = 50 + 15S
where S is the number of students.
Substituting S = 25 into the equation, we have:
C = 50 + 15(25)
C = 50 + 375
C = 425.00
Therefore, the school would need $425.00 to take a class of 25 students to see The Nutcracker.
