Part A ) A concert was recently held at the civic auditorium. All 5000 tickets were sold.

Answer 1

1. Total amount earned from the sale of 45$ reserved seats=  56,250$
2. Total amount accruing from the sale of 35$ seats= 26,250$
3. Total seats sold as general = 3000 seats
4. Total amount accruing from sale of general admission seats= 60,000$
5. Total amount garnered from sale of all the tickets= 1,42,500$

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of seats available at the auditorium- 5000

A. 25% tickets= reserved seats

Total number of seats= 25*5000/100=1250 tickets

Cost of each seat- 45$

Total amount earned from the sale of reserved seats=  56,250$

B. 15% of the seat reserved at 35$ each

Total number of such seats reserved= 15*5000/100=750 seats

Total amount accruing from the sale of such seats= 26,250$

C. The remainder of the seats were sold as general seats

Total seats sold as general= 5000-(1250+750) = 3000 seats

D. Cost of each general admission= 20$

Total amount accruing from sale of general admission seats= Total seats*price of each

= 3000*20$= 60,000$

E. Total amount garnered from sale of all the tickets= 60,000$ + 56,250$ + 26250$

=1,42,500$
