y = 53x + 10
y = 55x + 0 or just y = 55x

Option 1: with shipping fee

Let total cost of tickets be = y

Let the number of tickets be = t

Cost of 1 ticket is given as = $53

Shipping fee charges = $10 (one time charge for all tickets purchased together)

So, equation becomes :

[tex]y=53t+10[/tex]

Option 2: without shipping fee

Cost of 1 ticket is given as = $55

Shipping charge is free.

So, cost y becomes: [tex]y=55t[/tex]
