Answer:

(a) $83 for 6 snacks

(b) [tex]y = 65 + 3x[/tex] --- for x snacks

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Let:

[tex]n \to people[/tex]

[tex]ticket =\$13[/tex] --- per individual

[tex]snacks = \$3[/tex] --- per individual

Solving (a): Amount for 6 snacks

The amount paid (y) is:

[tex]y = ticket * n + snacks * 6[/tex] ---- because she bought 6 snacks

[tex]y = 13 * n + 3 * 6[/tex]

[tex]y = 13n + 18[/tex]

[tex]n = 5[/tex] ---- Annabelle and the 4 kids.

So:

[tex]y =13*5+18[/tex]

[tex]y =65+18[/tex]

[tex]y =83[/tex]

Solving (b): For x snacks

The amount paid (y) is:

[tex]y = ticket * n + snacks * x[/tex] ---- because she bought x snacks

[tex]y = 13* 5 + 3* x[/tex]

[tex]y = 65 + 3x[/tex]
