Question

A concert promoter needs to make $66,000 from the sale of 1700 tickets. The promoter charges $30 for some tickets and $60 for the others. Let x represent the number of $30 tickets and y represent the number of $60 tickets. (a) Write an equation that states that the sum of the tickets sold is 1700. (b) Write an expression for how much money is received from the sale of $30 tickets? $ (c) Write an expression for how much money is received from the sale of $60 tickets? $ (d) Write an equation that states that the total amount received from the sale is $66,000. (e) Solve the equations simultaneously to find how many tickets of each type must be sold to yield the $66,000.
