    1.) $10.50 + $3.50n

    2.) Replace the variable with the given number. In this case, the given number is 20.

    n = 20

    $10.50 + $3.50 (20)

    $10.50 + $70 = $80.50

    So, the total cost to visit the fair is $80.50.

    Total cost for one who visit the fair and bought 20 tickets is $80. 50

    Step-by-step explanation:

    The carnival cost to enter is $10.50 plus an additional $3.50 per ticket for rides and food.

    let n = number of ticket purchased

    Remember the ticket price is $3.50 per ticket

    This means 2 tickets price is $3.50 * 2 = $7, 3 tickets price = 3.50 * 3 = $10.50 and so on.

    The total cost to visit the fair should be

    Total cost = Carnival cost for entry + Ticket price (n)

    Total cost = $10.50 + $3.50 (n)

    The total cost for someone who bought 20 tickets

    Total cost = $10.50 + $3.50 * 20

    Total cost = $10.50 + $70

    Total cost = $80. 50

    Total cost for one who visit the fair and bought 20 tickets is $80. 50

    My reasoning is the fact that the person paid an entry fee of $10.50 plus tickets amounting to 3.50 * 20 = $70.
