The cost of a single ticket depends on the number of tickets, t, purchased in a group, as represented by the function C(t).

What is the total cost for 20 tickets?
$14.50
$16.00
$290.00
$320.00
The total cost for 20 tickets would be $290.00.
Since 20 is greater than or equal to 20, we would use the third row of the function which states that the cost per ticket is $14.50.
Therefore, the total cost for 20 tickets would be 20 x $14.50 = $290.00.
