Question

  1. the school chorus is selling tickets to its concert. the cost of each ticket is the same. - let ( t ) represent the number of tickets sold. - let ( m ) represent the amount of money collected, in dollars. complete the table for the values of ( t ).
tickets sold ( t )12511

Explanation:

Step1: Find ticket unit price

From the table, when $t=1$, $m=5$. So unit price = $\frac{5}{1}=5$ dollars per ticket.

Step2: Relate m and t

Total money = unit price × tickets sold, so $m=5t$.

Step3: Solve for t when m=25

Rearrange formula: $t=\frac{m}{5}$. Substitute $m=25$: $t=\frac{25}{5}=5$

Step4: Solve for t when m=90

Substitute $m=90$: $t=\frac{90}{5}=18$

(for question 13):

Step1: Define total pages

Total pages $y$ = initial pages + additional pages.

Step2: Write the equation

Initial pages =15, additional pages =$x$. So $y=x+15$

Answer:

For $m=25$, $t=5$; for $m=90$, $t=18$
