Unit cost of a ticket = Income from ticket sales / number of tickets sold:
$1250
--------------- = $6.58 per ticket
190 tickets
Again:
$1175
--------------- = $6.71
175 tickets
While ticket prices do change (usually increase) from year to year, it's unusual to see such a situation here.
Don't have any guidelines by which to determine the "fixed cost of a ticket".
If we use the cost of a ticket of 2 years ago ($6.58/ticket), then the income from the sale of 225 tickets this year would be ($6.58/ticket)(225 tickets), or $1480.50.
Answer:
125

Answer:
For this scenario, I used the elimination method. Organize the equations, so it's easier to subtract from each other. My x-variable will represent the number of hot dogs and my y-variable will represent the number of sodas.
3x+2y=213
x + y =87
We need to make sure one of the monomials are alike in each equation, so we can eliminate a variable. Distribute 3 to each number/variable in the second equation.
3x+2y=213
3(x+y=87) --> 3x+3y=261
Now we can eliminate x.
3x+2y=213
- 3x+3y=261
----------------------
-y=-48
Divide -1 to both sides to get y=48. So, you sold 48 cans of soda. Now, we can find the number of hot dogs by substituting 48 into the second equation to get x+48=87. Subtract 48 to both sides to result with x=39. So, you sold 39 hot dogs.
