    B. f (20) = 14; this means that it costs $14 to purchase 20 tickets and pay the entry fee.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    To evaluate the function, put 20 where x is, then do the arithmetic.

    f (20) = 0.50·20 + 4 = 10 + 4

    f (20) = 14

    ___

    To find the interpretation, put 20 where x is in the description of the function:

    "The function f (20) represents the total cost for 20 tickets for a carnival, including the entry fee."

    The appropriate choice is the one that matches these: choice B.
