John spent a total of $135 on baseball tickets. The price of a ticket is either $12 for the field seats or $5 for the balcony. What is the minimum amount of dollars he could have spent for the $12 tickets?
A. $48
B. $60
C. $84
D. $96
E. $120
Let he buy x number of 12 dollars tickets nd y number of 5 dollars ticket.
12x + 5y = 135
if x =0
12 *0 + 5y = 135
y = 27.
if x = 5
12 * 5 + 5*15 = 135.
Thus , minimum x = 5.
Total = 5*12 = 60.
B is the correct answer.
