Adult tickets to the school musical are $5 and student tickets are $2. There are 300 seats in the auditorium where the musical is being performed. The goal for ticket sales for one performance is at least $900. Make a graph showing the number of each kind of ticket needed to be sold to reach the goal. List three possible solutions.
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Is this correct?
\n" ); document.write( "y<-x+300; this is correct
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "y>-5/3x=300; this seems to wrong
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Here is how I would do it:
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "x = no. of $5 tickets
\n" ); document.write( "y = no. of $2 tickets\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "x + y <= 300
\n" ); document.write( "y <= 300 - x; the same equation that you had
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "5x + 2y >= 900
\n" ); document.write( "2y >= 900 - 5x
\n" ); document.write( "y >= 900/2 - (5/2)x
\n" ); document.write( "y >= 450 - 2.5x
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Plot these two equations:
\n" ); document.write( "\"+graph%28+300%2C+200%2C+-100%2C+350%2C+-100%2C+500%2C+300-x%2C+450+-+2.5x%29+\"
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "The area of feasibility would be at or above the green, at or below the red>
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "At the intersection x=100, y = 200; 5(100) + 2(200) = 900
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Note in the triangle to the right of the intersection, the $900 minimum would be
\n" ); document.write( "exceeded in that area.
\n" ); document.write( "For example: x = 200, y = 100, then: 5(200) + 2(100) = $1200
\n" ); document.write( "or x = 250, y = 50, then 5(250) + 2(50) = $1350
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "I'm sure you can find a third one in this area
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Did this help you? \n" ); document.write( "
