Missing part of the question is;

Find a formula for the number of seats sold if the ticket price is P dollars.

Answer:

(680 - P)/3

Step-by-step explanation:

A) Let x be equal to the number of seats and hence we can conclude that (160 - x) is equal to the number of seats after the increase in price.

Similarly, the increase in ticket price would be equal to (P - 200)

Due to the fact that for every $3 increase, the number of seats decrease by 1, the equation that links the change in the number of seats to the change in ticket price is;

P - 200 = 3(160 - x)

P = 3(160 - x) + 200

Making x the subject;

P = 480 - 3x + 200

P = 680 - 3x

3x = 680 - P

x = (680 - P)/3

Catherine selected a random sample of 500 families, out of a possible 35,000 families. Because the population is large, her sample size should have also been a little bit larger than 500. In this case, the correct answers are A and D, because selecting more families to sample would have represented the population better.

Anthony already has 8 stickers, and he will get 21 additional stickers from each sticker pack he buys. How many sticker packs do
Vanyuwa [196]

First, let's declare some variables.

x = # of sticker packs

y = total # of stickers

Now, let's create an equation to model the problem.

y = 21x + 8

Let's plug in 50 for y and solve for x.

50 = 21x + 8

Subtract 8 from both sides.

42 = 21x

Divide both sides by 21

2 = x

Anthony will have to buy 2 sticker packs to have a total of 50 stickers.
