Answer:

(a) Initial ticket = 60

(b) 5 tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]Expression = 60 - 5x[/tex]

Solving (a): Initial Tickets

A linear function is represented as:

[tex]y = c + mx[/tex]

Where c is the initial value

In this case, c represents the initial tickets.

By comparing

[tex]y = c + mx[/tex] to [tex]Expression = 60 - 5x[/tex]

[tex]c= 60[/tex]

Solving (b): Tickets needed on each ride

This represents the rate

In [tex]y = c + mx[/tex], m represents the rate

By comparing

[tex]y = c + mx[/tex] to [tex]Expression = 60 - 5x[/tex]

[tex]m = -5[/tex]

It is negative because 5 tickets is subtracted for each ride.

Hence, the number of ticket per ride is 5
