Challenge The members of the city cultural center have decided to put on a play once a night for a
week. Their auditorium holds 500 people. By selling tickets, the members would like to raise $2,350
every night to cover all expenses. Let d represent the number of adult tickets sold at $6.50. Lets
represent the number of student tickets sold at $3.50 each. If all 500 seats are filled for a
performance, how many of each type of ticket must have been sold for the members to raise exactly
$2,350? At one performance there were three times as many student tickets sold as adult tickets. If
there were 400 tickets sold at that performance, how much below the goal of $2,350 did ticket sales
fall?
The members sold
adult tickets and
student tickets.

The formula for weight in linear function is y= 7.7x + 7
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Given that,
- The weight of the born baby = 7 lbs
- The weight of the baby at 10 years = 84 lbs.
To find the linear function, the rate of change of weight must be calculated.
<u>To find the rate of change of the baby's weight:</u>
The change in the weight is from 7 lbs to 84 lbs.
- The total change = 84 - 7 =77
- The rate of change = 77 / 10 years = 7.7
Therefore, the rate of change of weight of the baby is 7.7 lbs.
This means that, every year the weight has been increased by 7.7 lbs and in 10 years the baby gained a weight of 84 lbs.
<u>From this information, the linear function is given as :</u>
Total weight = 7.7(number of years) + born weight.
⇒ y= 7.7x + 7
where,
- The born weight is 7 lbs.
- y is the total weight of the baby
- x is the number of years
The answer is 523.6 and all you have to do is round it to the nearest hundredth
