Sure! Let's break down the process step by step to estimate the total dollars taken in from the sale of the tickets:
1. Identify the original numbers:
- Number of tickets sold: 42
- Cost per ticket: \[tex]$29
2. Round each number to its nearest ten:
- The number of tickets sold, 42, rounds down to 40.
- The cost per ticket, \$[/tex]29, rounds up to \[tex]$30.
3. Multiply the rounded numbers to estimate the total income:
- Multiply the rounded number of tickets sold (40) by the rounded ticket cost (\$[/tex]30):
[tex]\[
40 \times 30 = 1200
\][/tex]
So, the estimated total dollars taken in from selling the tickets is \$1200.
