- Q15Two eighth-grade classes are selling raffle tickets to raise money. • One class is selling tickets for $2.50 each and has already raised $350. • The other class is selling tickets for $3.00 each and has already raised $225. Which equation can be used to find t, the number of tickets each class needs to sell so that the total amount raised is the same for both classes?350t + 2.50 = 225t + 32.50 t + 350 = 3t + 2253t + 350 = 2.50 t + 225Not here60s8.8.A: Expressions, Equations and Relationships
