Answer:

$12

Step-by-step explanation:

If we stuck with the price of $8, then we end with an income of $2400

Increasing it by $1 will decrease attendance by 20

8 x 300 = 2400

9 x 280 = 2520

10 x 260 = 2600

11 x 240 = 2640

12 x 220 = 2640

13 x 200 = 2600

We're starting to go down, so let's stop there

The ticket price of $11 or $12 appears to give the most income

I would stick with $12 since your still getting more money from one ticket

Tickets to the zoo cost $15 for adults and $11 for children. The school has a budget of $1500 for the field trip. An equation re
Alika [10]

It is not possible for 120 kids and 20 adults to go on the trip, but 120 students can go with a maximum of 12 adults so the expense of the trip can fall in the school's budget.

We know that tickets of the zoo cost $15 for adults and $11 for children.

The equation representing the budget for the trip is 15x + 11y = 1500.

where, x is the no. of adults and y is the number of children that are travelling.

If x = 20 and y = 120 then,

15(20)+11(120)=300+1320=1620 which is out of the budget of the school.

If 120 students want to go to school then, no. of adults that can travel can be determined as

15 x + 11 (120 )<= 1500

15x  <=1500-1320

15x<=180

x <=12

Therefore, we can conclude that 120 students and 20 adults cannot travel for the trip but 120 students can travel with a maximum of 12 adults among with them as it will cost school the trip in the budget.

lions [1.4K]

Answer:

12.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

The price increased from 800 to 900. So what is the PERCENTAGE INCREASE??

The increase is 900 - 800 = 100

To find this in terms of original, we need to divide 100 by 800 and multiply by 100 to get the "percentage". Let's do it:

\frac{100}{800}*100=12.5

So the increase is 12.5% and thus the general sales tax is 12.5%
