Question

What is the product?The school band wishes to raise a minimum of $800 by selling tickets to their holiday concert. They make $3 from each student ticket and $5 from each adult ticket. Let x represent the number of student tickets, and let y represent the number of adult tickets. Which linear inequality can be used to find the combinations of adult and student tickets that they can sell to meet their goal?

Answer 1

a

Explanation:

3x represents each student and 5y represents each adult so that has to be greater than or at least equal to the minimum ( keyword here) of $800

Answer 2

3x + 5y
`\geq` 800

This is because they will need to get at least 800 so it can be greater than or equal to. And you multiply the type of ticket by how much it costs.
