Get ready for an amusement park day of fun! You and your family want to spend the day at a theme park You have pooled your money together and have $685. The tickets to the park are $125 each and there is an online processing fee of $5.75 per ticket. You also need to pay $20 for parking. If you have a family of five, do you have enough money to purchase these tickets? Find an inequality to determine how many tickets can be purchased. Then find how many tickets you are able to purchase based on your inequality ( 1 point) 125t + 5.75t + 20 < 685 and no, you cannot purchase the tickets. 125t <= 685 and yes, you can purchase the tickets 125t + 5.75t + 20 <= 685 and yes, you can purchase the tickets 125t + 5.75t < 685 and yes, you can purchase the tickets
The correct inequality to determine how many tickets can be purchased is:
125t + 5.75t + 20 <= 685
Simplifying this inequality, we have:
130.75t + 20 <= 685
Subtracting 20 from both sides, we get:
130.75t <= 665
Dividing both sides by 130.75, we get:
t <= 5.08
Since we cannot purchase a fraction of a ticket, we can only purchase a whole number of tickets. Therefore, we can purchase a maximum of 5 tickets.
In conclusion, the correct answer is:
125t + 5.75t + 20 <= 685 and yes, you can purchase the tickets.
