Mustafa’s soccer team is planning a school dance as a fundraiser. The DJ charges $200 and decorations cost $100. The team decides to charge each student $5.00 to attend the dance. If n represents the number of students attending the dance, which equation can be used to find the number of students needed to make $1,500 in profit?

5n – 300 = 1,500
5n + 300 = 1,500
5n – 200 + 100n = 1,500
5n – 100 – 200n = 1,500

Answer:

The first one, A

Step-by-step explanation:

DJ costs $300 in total.

For every student there is $5.

We want a profit of 1,500, so the total money earned from students attending subtracted by the costs of the DJ should be 1,500.

5n - 300 = 1,500

For the second one, it'll be the DJ giving you $300.

The last Two answers has an n where it's supposed to be money when n represents each student.
