Question

A Broadway musical came to town. The auditorium filled all 1,000 seats at two-level pricing. Level 1 tickets are $75 each, and level 2 tickets are $100 each. The theater made $25,000 from ticket sales. The system of equations that models this scenario is:

x + y = 1,000
75x + 100y = 25,000

What do the x and y represent in the system?

A. x represents the number of level 1 tickets; y represents the number of level 2 tickets
B. x represents the number of level 2 tickets; y represents the number of level 1 tickets
C. x represents the cost of level 1 tickets; y represents the cost of level 2 tickets
D. x represents the cost of level 2 tickets; y represents the cost of level 1 tickets
