Answer:

t = 59

Step-by-step explanation:

Profit made by the amusement park is given by the equation

Profit = 34(t-52) + 15.

                       where,  t is the number of tickets sold.

Given, Total profit made by the park is equal to $238.13.

Equating the profit with the equation,

We get,  34(t-52) + 15 = 238.13

              34(t - 52)  = 223.13

                  t - 52 = 6.56

                   t = 58.56

Rounding off the number of tickets sold we get t = 59 .
