Answer:

C = 6.75n + 50

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for the cost of renting the party room can be written in the form;

C= mn+k ......i

Where C = cost

n = number of people

Substituting the 2 cases into the equation we have,

Case 1

117.5 = 10m + k ......1

Case 2

151.25 = 15m + k .....2

Subtracting eqn 1 from 2 we have

151.25 - 117.50 = 15m - 10m

5m = 33.75

m = 33.75/5 = 6.75

Substituting m = 6.75 into eqn 1, we have

117.50 = 10(6.75) + k

k = 117.5 - 67.50

k = 50

Therefore, rewriting the eqn i, we have

C = 6.75n + 50

The MTC Theater holds 250 people, and last night's performance sold out! Children's tickets were $2.50 per ticket, while adults
olasank [31]

60 children tickets and 190 adult tickets were sold.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Let the no. of adult tickets sold be 'a'

Let the no. of children tickets sold be 'c'

Total tickets sold = 250

Cost of 1 children ticket = $2.5

Cost of 1 adult ticket = $4

Total money collected= $910

Given that,

a + c = 250

a = 250 - c

4a + 2.5c = 910

Substitute a value

4(250 - c) + 2.5c = 910

1000 - 4c + 2.5c = 910

1000 - 1.5c = 910

-1. 5c = -90

1.5c = 90

c = 90/1.5

c = 60

a + c = 250

a + 60 = 250

a = 190

60 children tickets and 190 adult tickets were sold.
