ALOT OF POINTS FOR THIS ONE Admission to the state fair is $12, and each ride ticket costs $3.50. Write an
expression to represent the situation and explain what the variable means.

3.50t + 12 where t represents the number of ride tickets
3.50a + 12 where a represents the cost of admission
12a + 3.50 where a represents the cost of admission
12t + 3.50 where t represents the number of ride tickets

step-by-step explanation:

the system of inequalities is

step-by-step explanation:

step 1

find the equation of the dashed line

we have the points

(0,0) and (3,1)

the line passes through the origin, so, is a direct variation

find the slope

the equation of the dashed line is

the solution of the inequality a s the shaded area above the dashed line

therefore

the equation of the inequality a is

step 2

find the equation of the solid line

we have the points

(4,0) and (0,4)

find the slope

the equation of the solid line is

the solution of the inequality b s the shaded area below the solid line

therefore

the equation of the inequality b is

step 3

the system of inequalities is
