Answer:

8 tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

x = 10 in the given equation.

We have then:

C (x) = 17.5x - 10

C (10) = 17.5 * (10) - 10

C (10) = 165

Answer:

to buy 10 tickets cost:

$ 165

b. How many tickets can you buy with $ 130?  

For this case we must make the substitution: C (x) = 130

We have then:

C (x) = 17.5x - 10

130 = 17.5x - 10

Clearing x we have:

17.5x = 130 + 10

17.5x = 140

x = (140) / (17.5)

x = 8

Answer:

You can buy 8 tickets with $ 130
