Question

Concert tickets cost $15 for general admission, but only $9 with a student ID. Ticket sales total $450. Write and graph an equation that models this situation.
Equation :
x-intercept (x,y) :
y-intercept (x,y) :

Answer 1

The equation that models the situation is 15x + 9y = 450

The x-intercept is (30, 0) and the y-intercept is (0, 50)

Given the following parameters:

• Cost of concert tickets for general admission= $15

• Cost of a ticket for those with student ID = $9

Given that the total sales is $450, the equation that models this situation will be expressed as:

• 15x + 9y = 450

where:

x is the those that admitted generally

y are those with student ID

Get the x-intercept.

This is a point where the y-axis is zero

15x + 9y = 450

15x + 9(0) = 450

15x = 450

x = 450/15

x = 30

Thee x-intercept is (30, 0)

Get the y-intercept.

This is a point where the x-axis is zero

15(0) + 9y = 450

0 + 9y = 450

9y = 450

y = 450/9

x = 50

The y-intercept is (0, 50)
