Question

A local band is being paid $250 for performing at a local concert. They also receive $2 for each ticket sold. The chart below shows the bands total pay for the first five tickets sold.
1. Write an expression that will calculate the bands total pay for x number of tickets sold.
2. How much money will the band make for selling 100 tickets?
3. How much money will the band make for selling 150 tickets?​

Answer 1

Answer:

1.250+x(1)

2.550 dollars

3.575

Explanation:

question 1: you would put how much they make for being there and playing then add how much the would make for how mnay tickerts that were sold, then that numbers turns into x. Then in parathensise aka (), put how much they sold.

question 2: If they make 2 dollars for every ticket sold all you have to is add 250 because that is how much they made from being there and then add 200 because 100x2=200.

question 3: So, we know for 100 tickets sold they make 550 dollars. Now we just have to divied 50 by 2 becuase 50 is how much they added on to the 100. 50 divied by 2 is 25. So now we take 550 and add 25 and we get 275. We add those together because we already ahve solved for the 100 one and we just need to do a qucik problem to get us answer number 3.

hope this help you improve later on in your life!
