Question

The drama club is selling tickets to their play to raise money for the show's expenses.

Answer 1

Answer:

25

Step-by-step explanation:

Ticket sale (student) = $8

Ticket sale (adult) = $13

The hall can contain 70 people.

Number of adult tickets sold = 41

Cost of show = $730

Let the number of student ticket sold = x

Setting an algebraic equation to show represent the cost of the show and set minimum target of ticket to be sold.

730 = (41 * 13) + (x * 8)

730 = 533 + 8x

8x = 730 - 533

8x = 197

X = 197 / 8

x = 24.6 = 25

The minimum number of student tickets to be sold is 25
