Question

MEDAL AND FAN

Answer 1

The table below shows the ticket rates for whale watching trips offered by Beluga Fun Tours:

Age Ticket Price
Under 3 years free
3 to 12 years $34
Over 12 years $45

On a certain day, the company took 103 people on whale watching trips. There were 64 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? (4 points)


(64 - x)34 + (103 - 64) ⋅ 45 = C
(103 + x)34 + (103 -(64 + x)) ⋅ 45 = C
(103 - x)34 + (103 - 64) ⋅ 45 = C
(64 + x)34 + (103 -(64 + x)) ⋅ 45 = C

Answer 2

hint:
number of children from 3 to 12 years are 64-x, whereas the number of children over 12 years is 103-64
