The members of the drama club have 100 tickets to sell
to the school play. Students pay $5 per ticket, and
nonstudents pay $10 per ticket. The drama club needs
to collect at least $800 in total ticket sales. The system
of inequalities represents the number of student tickets,
s, and the number of nonstudent tickets, n, the members
must sell.
S + n < 100
5s + 10n > 800

Respuesta :

Answer:40

Step-by-step explanation:

answer is 40

A

The number of tickets sold to the student is s = 40 (maximum) and to the nonstudent is n = 60(minimum) in order to collect at least $800 in total ticket sales.

The members of the drama club have 100 tickets to sell Students pay $5 per ticket, and nonstudents pay $10 per ticket. Inequalities given S + n < 100, 5s + 10n > 800. Maximum tickets for students and minimum tickets for nonstudents are to be determined.


What is inequality?

Inequality can be defined as the relation of an equation containing the symbol of ( ≤, ≥, <, >) instead of the equal sign in an equation.

Here,
Let S + n = 100    -----(1)
 5s + 10n = 800   ----(2)
Solving equations 1 and 2
S = 40 and n = 60
in order to hold the inequality s should be a maximum of 40 or n should be a minimum of 60.


Thus, the number of tickets sold to the student is s = 40 (maximum) and to the nonstudent is n = 60(minimum) in order to collect at least $800 in total ticket sales.
