$20 per ticket;
x tickets;
$1800 rent of supplies;
$6 per plate.
ALSO x plates. This is only assuming one to one ticket to plate.
Cost for school:
Revenue for school:
They hope to raise at least $50000 for the dinner.
This seems to mean, the profit hoped-for is 50000.
.
The question should be, "What is an equation or inequality for the number of tickets the school should sell."
