Carnival m charges an entrance fee of 5.00 and. 65 per ticket for the rides. Carnival P charges an entrance fee of 10.00 and. 45 per ticket for the rides. How many tickets must be purchased in order for the total cost of carnival M and carnival p are the same?

Answer: 25 tickets must be purchased in order for the total cost of carnival M and carnival p are the same.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of tickets that must be purchased in order for the total cost of carnival M and carnival p are the same.

Carnival m charges an entrance fee of 5.00 and. 65 per ticket for the rides. It means that the total cost of x tickets at carnival M is

0.65x + 5

Carnival P charges an entrance fee of 10.00 and. 45 per ticket for the rides. It means that the total cost of x tickets at carnival M is

0.45x + 10

For the total cost to be the same, the number of tickets would be

0.65x + 5 = 0.45x + 10

0.65x - 0.45x = 10 - 5

0.2x = 5

x = 5/0.2

x = 25
