Question 286196: Please help me solve this!!
Two bands are bidding for the job of playing at the school dance. It's your job to pick which one is better on money.
The Mathos charge $340 plus $ 1.50 for each ticket sold.
The Functions charge $275 plus $ 1.75 fir each ticket sold.
Write linear equations representing the costs of each band. Be sure to indicate what the variables stand for.
Thank you! Answer by josmiceli(19441) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! I want to get 2 equations in the form
I want to plot money on the vertical axis and tickets
sold on the horizontal axis.
Let = the cost of each band
Let = the number of tickets sold by each band
For band #1:
For band #2:
Notice that if , or no tickets sold, band #1
still makes $340 and band #2 still makes $275
Here is a polot of the 2 lines:
It looks like the 2nd band is cheaper until about 260 tickets are sold
then the 1st band is cheaper.
