The admission cost for each player was 22.50.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Luke’s basketball team went to an amusement park at the end of the season.

The cost of the admission for 5 coaches and 12 players was 407.50.

The admission cost for each coach was 27.50.

Now, to find the admission cost for each player.

Total admission cost = 407.50.

Number of coaches = 5.

Admission cost for each = 27.50.

So, the cost of admission of all coaches:

Then, we deduct the cost of admission of all coaches from the total admission cost:

Remaining cost = 270.

Number of player = 12.

Now, to get the admission cost for each player we divide the remaining cost  by number of players:

Therefore, the admission cost for each player was 22.50.
