Question

On a certain day, the company took 88 people on whale watching trips. There were 44 children aged twelve and under, of which some children were under three years. If x represents the number of children under three years, which equation can be used to find the value of x, where C represents the total amount of money collected from tickets that day?

Answer 1

(44 + x)35 + (88 – (44 + x)) ∙ 46 = C

(88 - x)35 + (88 – 44) ∙ 46 = C

(44 – x)35 + (88 – 44) ∙ 46 = C

(88 + x)35 + (88 – (44 + x)) ∙ 46 = C

Answer 2

those r the choices right?

Answer 8

how do you know?

Answer 9

no fare for children below 3 yrs (makes sense right)
fare for children between 3 and 12 is 35
fare for people above 12 is 46
hence the final answer would be \[x*0 + (44-x)*35 + (88-44)*46 = C(total money collected)\]
