Answer:

The PTA must sell 42 tickets to make a profit.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, we will have to construct an inequality in which $250 is less than our solution.

Let s = student tickets

Since each student ticket is priced at $6.00, the money raised by the student tickets can be represented by the expression:

6s

Since it will cost the PTA $250.00 for the dance, the profit will have to be equal to anything greater than $250.00.

Set up your inequality:

250

Divide both sides of the inequality by the coefficient of s, which is 6:

41.7=s

As you can see, we are left with a decimal, but we will have to round to the nearest whole number as the tickets can only be represented as whole numbers:

42=s

Therefore, the PTA must sell 42 tickets in order to make a profit.

-

You can check your work by substituting the solved value for the tickets into the inequality:

250

250

250

And since $252 is greater than $250 (represents a $2 profit), our solution is correct.

Answer:

42 tickets.

Step-by-step explanation:

To make a profit, the PTA will need to earn at least $251, because it spent $250 on the dance. so we can divide 251/6 = 41 remainder 5, which means we need to sell 42 tickets.

3x+2y=23<br> 1/2x-4=y<br><br> What should I do for this one...? I dont really understand
Hitman42 [59]

Since you have y alone on one side of the equation......

Use substitution and plug in 1/2x-4 for y in the other equation.


3x+2(1/2x-4)=23\\

Distribute

3x+x-8=23

Combine like terms

4x-8=23

Add 8 to both sides

4x=31

Divide by 4

and x=31/4

Plug this value in for x

31/4*1/2-4=y

Simplify

31/8-4=y

Multiply everything by 8 and simplify

31-32=8y\\-1=8y

Divide.....

y=-1/8


Your answers are:

y=-1/8\\x=31/4
