What do you think and what have you previously learned on the subject?
Answer:
Your answer is 226 numbers.
Part A: The discounted monthly fee is $22.49 (original cost of $29.99 multiplied by 75%, the amount the customer would pay since 25% is discounted.) Since you would also pay $44.99 for setup, your equation is $44.99+$22.49m
Part B: Add 1.08 (108%; the customer pays 100% of the cost plus 8% more for tax) to your equation for the sales tax. 1.08(44.99+22.49m)
Part C: Plug in 4 for m (m represents months).
1.08(44.99+22.49•4)
1.08(44.99+89.96)
1.08(134.95)
$145.75

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.
