The student council is planning the school carnival. each
ticket costs $2.50. explain how to write an equation that
represents this scenario. let x represent the number of
tickets sold, and y represent the total amount of money
raised.

y=2.5x

Step-by-step explanation:

The total amount of money raised(y) = how many tickets are sold(x) x the price per ticket(2.5)

Hypothetically, if 24 tickets were sold, we could substitute 24 into x...

y=2.5(24)

y=60

The required expression is y=0.25x

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

The student council is planning the school carnival. Each  ticket costs $2.50.

Let x represent the number of  tickets sold, and y represent the total amount of money  raised.

The cost of each ticket is $2.50 then for x number of  tickets sold the cost will be:

2.50x

It is given that y represent the total amount of money  raised.

Thus, the required expression is y=0.25x

just sum

10 + 10 = 20
