Answer 5

@wejighire

per person, the total amount made per person is 10 (the admission charge) - 5.50 (the amount used towards the rental fee)

the total revenue therefore is (10 - 5.50)(number of people)

from there, it should be straightforward what the equation is, and what the total revenue is

Answer 7

you showed that 500/10 is 50 which is not one of the answer choices, nor the correct answer
