The cost of a movie ticket is $7.25. If I have $20, do I have enough money to purchase a ticket for my sister and myself as well as a drink and popcorn which costs $5.75? Explain.

Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

What we have to do is find how much everything costs.

After we do that, we can compare that total cost with the amount she has to determine if she can afford everything.

Let's set up an expression to see how much everything costs.

2 Movie tickets: 7.25+7.25

Drink and Popcorn: 5.75

Total: 7.25+7.25+5.75

14.5+5.75

20.25

20.25>20

Therefore, they would not have enough money to purchase 2 tickets and drinks+popcorn.
