Answer:

\(\$8\)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: for Carolina's birthday her mom took her and her for friends to the water park Carolina's mom paid \(\$40\) for \(5\) student tickets.

To Find: price for one student ticket.

Solution:

Total number of student tickets bought by carolina's mom \(=5\)

Total amount paid by carolina's mom for student tickets \(=\$40\)

Now,

To determine cost of one student ticket we will divide total amount into \(5\) equal parts.

cost of one student ticket     \(=\frac{\text{total amount paid}}{\text{Total number of student ticket}}\)

putting values

                                               \(\frac{40}{5}\)

                                               \(\$8\)

Hence cost of one student ticket is \(\$8\)
