So are you supposed to draw the graph or chose from multiple options? I included a graph of the problem (excuse the messy writing and graph) that's what it should kinda look like:
I believe the answer is 922,944
Answer:
2.50t + 350 = 3t + 225
Step-by-step explanation:
Let t represent the number of tickets that each class needs to sell so that the total amount raised is the same for both classes.
One class is selling tickets for $2.50 each and has already raised $350. This means that the total amount that would be raised from selling t tickets is
2.5t + 350
The other class is selling tickets for $3.00 each and has already raised $225. This means that the total amount that would be raised from selling t tickets is
3t + 225
Therefore, for the total costs to be the same, the number of tickets would be
2.5t + 350 = 3t + 225
The answer to the question before the comma is -24
25/5 = 5
and also
15/3 = 5
so
(3x+ 8)/5 = 4
3x + 8 = 20
3x = 12
x = 12/3
x = 4
answer is x = 4
