Band A.

• Charges $600 to play for the night.

Notice that this cost is to play the whole night, it's a fixed cost.


A=600

Band B.

• Charges $375 plus $10 for each ticket sold.

,

• The sophomore sold 30 tickets.

This band has a fixed cost plus a fee of $10, which is $300 more because they sold 30 tickets.

So, the cost of this band would be


B=350+10(30)=350+300=650

Therefore, Band B will charge more than Band A.
