Answer: 565 general admission and 430 lower-level seating tickets sold (Answer (D))
Steps:
Let x be the number of general admission tickets, and y be the number of lower level tickets.
Set up the two equations:
68762.5 = x * 47.50 + y * 97.50 (total price as a sum of individual volumes)
x + y = 995 (sum of individual count = total count of tickets sold)
solve for x, y:
x = 995 - y
plug into the first equation:
68762.5 = (995-y) * 47.50 + y * 97.50
solve for y:
y = 430
then x = 565
x = 565 and y = 430
Answer: #444
Step-by-step explanation:
First find the original selling price of the article.
When sold for #372 the profit was 24%. Assume the original price is x.
372 = x + 24% * x
372 = 1.24x
x = 372 / 1.24
= #300
If he wanted to make a profit of 48% he should have sold for:
= Original price + (original price * 48%)
= 300 + (300 * 48%)
= #444
There is no y so I wouldn’t be able to answer
