Question

A theater company has raised $810.75 by selling 15 floor seat tickets. Each ticket costs the same.

Part A: Write an equation with a variable that can be solved to correctly find the price of each ticket. Explain how you created this equation.

Part B: Solve your equation in Part A to find the price of each floor seat ticket. How do you know your solution is correct?

Answer 1

$810.75 is the total price that they raised
15 floor seat tickets were sold
15x = 810.75
How to solve?
inverse operation so divide 15/15 (cancels out)
810.75/15=54.05
Thus, each floor seat ticket costs $54.05
Hope I helped! :)

15x = 810.75

Part B: Solve your equation in Part A to find the price of each floor seat ticket. How do you know your solution is correct?

How to solve?
Using inverse operations to divide 15/15 (cancels out)
810.75/15=54.05
Thus, each floor seat ticket costs $54.05
Check: 54.05*15=810.75

Answer 4

which one is part a and which one is part b

Answer 8

15x = 810.75 is part A....with x representing the cost of each ticket
so basically this breaks down to 15 tickets at $x = 810.75


part B : solve it
15x = 810.75 -- divide both sides by 15
x = 54.05

and you can check your answer by subbing it back into the original equation to see if it is true
15x = 810.75
15(54.05) = 810.75
810.75 = 810.75 (correct).....so that proves your answer
