Mr. Sanchez took his wife and two children to the circus. Tickets were $7.50 for adults and $5.25 for children. Mr. Sanchez had $30 to spend. Was that enough to pay the tickets? What, if any, change did he get back?
7_50+5_25=12.75
12.75+12.75=25.50
30_25.50=4.5
This is the answer right or f
Mr Sanchez + wife = 7.50 + 7.50 = $15.00
Two children = 5.25 + 5.25 = $10.50
$15.00 + $10.50 = ??

If you'd use proper notations (dollar signs, decimal points), I'd be able to tell better.
Close, but there seems to be a mistake in your calculation. Let's go through the problem and find the correct answer step by step.
First, we need to calculate the total cost of tickets for Mr. Sanchez, his wife, and two children. Since there are three adults (Mr. Sanchez and his wife) and two children, the calculation would be:
(3 adults x $7.50 per adult) + (2 children x $5.25 per child)
Now we can calculate this:
(3 x $7.50) + (2 x $5.25) = $22.50 + $10.50 = $33.00
The total cost of the tickets would be $33.00.
Given that Mr. Sanchez has only $30, we can determine whether it is enough to pay for the tickets. Since $30 is less than $33, Mr. Sanchez does not have enough money to pay for the tickets.
To find out how much change Mr. Sanchez would get back, you subtract the total cost of the tickets ($33.00) from the amount he has ($30.00).
$30.00 - $33.00 = -$3.00
The result is -$3.00, which means Mr. Sanchez would need an additional $3.00 to cover the cost of the tickets.
Therefore, the correct answer is that Mr. Sanchez did not have enough money to pay for the tickets, and he would have needed $3.00 more to cover the cost.
