Problema Solution
A total of 150 tickets were sold for a concert to students and faculty members. Students tickets were $5 and faculty tickets were $8. If the total revenue for the concert was $930 dollars, then how many student tickets were sold?
Answer provided by our tutors
let 'x' represent the number of student tickets sold, then '150-x' represents the number of faculty tickets sold
930 = 5x + 8(150-x)
solving for 'x' we have x=90
150-90 = 60 faculty tickets
90 students tickets were sold
