So here's the solution to the problem:
Calculate the average sell:
1,700 * $25 = $42,500 (revenue)
And if the Opera House wants to increase their revenue:
The price of a ticket will be:
$25 - x (where x is the number of 1-dollar decreases)
The number of tickets in total:
1,700 + 200x
Therefore the equation is:
(1,700 +200x) * ( 25 - x ) = 55,000
We can also solve this equation, but the solutions are not whole numbers.
x 1 = 5.89 and x 2 =10.6
For x = 6 (6 times 1 - dollar decreases):
( 1,700 + 200 * 6 ) * ( 25 - 6 ) = ( 1,700 + 1,200 ) * 18
=2,900 *19 = 55,100 (we will yield the revenue over $55,000)
X= 50
Replace the x with the given number.
Y= 50-20
Y= 30
The steps of the solution into order to solve for x in the equation 6(x-5) = 54 are:
- A. 6x – 30 = 54
- B. 6x = 84
- D. x = 14
Given the expression 6(x-5) = 54
Expand the expression in parenthesis using the distributive law;
6x - 6(5) = 54
6x - 30 = 54
Add 30 to both sides
6x - 30 + 30 = 54 + 30
6x = 84
Divide both sides by 6
6x/6 = 84/6
x = 14
Therefore the steps of the solution into order to solve for x in the equation 6(x-5) = 54 are:
- A. 6x – 30 = 54
- B. 6x = 84
- D. x = 14
