For the upcoming One Direction Reunion Show, they are selling tickets for $80 per student and $130 per adult. On the night of show, One Direction collected $80,000 for charity from the ticket sales.

Write an equation that shows this linear relationship in Standard Form.
A. 80x + 130y = 80,000
B. 80,000 = 80x + 130
C. 80,000 = 130x + 80
D. 80x - 130y = 80,000

Answer 1

The linear relationship between the number of student tickets and adult tickets sold for the One Direction Reunion Show can be expressed as 80x + 130y = 80,000.

Step-by-step explanation:

The linear relationship between the number of student tickets (x) and adult tickets (y) sold for the One Direction Reunion Show can be expressed as the equation 80x + 130y = 80,000. This equation is in standard form, which is in the form Ax + By = C. In this equation, 80 represents the cost of a student ticket and 130 represents the cost of an adult ticket.
