On a certain day, the company took 82 people on whale watching trips. There were 54 children aged 12 and under, of which some children were under 3 years. If x represents the number of children under 3 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
(54 + x)32 + (82 - (54 + x)) ⋅ 44 = C
(54 - x)32 + (82 - 54) ⋅ 44 = C
(82 + x)32 + (82 -

Answer 3

the answers is (54 - x)32 + (82 - 54) ⋅ 44 = C
54-x will give you the number of children aged 3-12
then multiplying that by 32 will give you the total price paid by children aged 3-12
82-54 will give you the number of people aged 12+, then multiplying that by 44 will give you the total amount paid by those 12+
Since children under 3 don't pay we don't need to work that out, meaning the above calculation will give you the total amount paid on the day :-D
