Algebra.Com's Answer #165695 by Alan3354(69443)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! An outdoor amphitheatre has 25,000 seats. Ticket prices are $15, $17, and $25. The number of tickets priced at $17 must equal two times the number priced at $25. How many tickets should be sold ( assuming all seats can be sold) to bring in $434,500? . Set up a system of equations an dsolve using th inverse matrix method. \n" ); document.write( "I was setting up like this: \n" ); document.write( "X+Y+Z = 25,000 \n" ); document.write( "15x + 17y + 25z = 43500 \n" ); document.write( "The number of tickets priced at $17 must equal two times the number priced at $25. \n" ); document.write( "y = 2z \n" ); document.write( "----------- \n" ); document.write( "That's the 3rd equation. \n" ); document.write( "Email me via the thank you note for help, or to check you work if you like. \n" ); document.write( " |
