suppose our school is having a talent show to raise money for new music supplies .you estimate that 200 students and 150 adults Will attend. you estimate $200 in expense. write an equation to find what ticket prices you should set to raise exactly $1,000
Maybe something like: 200s + 105a + 200 = 1,000 You can use x and y instead of s for student and a for adult. Are the adults and students charged the same? If so then: 200x + 105x + 200 = 1,000
