Question

The seventh grade class is putting on a variety show to raise money it cost $700 to rent the banquet hall that they are going to use if they charge $15 for each chick ticket how many tickets do they need to sell in order to raise at least $1,000

Answer 1

At least 67 to raise $1,000.  Now if it's asking you to take the amount of $700 and add it to $1,000 because they rented it, it would be $1,700. In order to get $1,700, they need to sell 114 tickets. Hope this helps
