Due to fire laws, no more than 720 people may attend a performance at Metro Auditorium. The balcony holds 120 people. There are 32 rows on the ground floor, each with the same number of seats. Write an inequality to find the number of people that can sit in a ground floor row if the balcony is full. Identify what your variable represents.

120 + 32x < = 720....with x being the number of seats
32x < = 720 - 120
32x < = 600
x < = 600 / 32
x < = 18.75
