Question

Your choir has 300 tickets to sell. You are responsible for distributing 10 tickets to each choir member to sell. A - Write an equation in two variables that represents the remaining number of tickets to distribute. B - Identify the independent and dependent variables. I got 300 divided by (10m) = A, but I do not know if it's right.

Answer 1

Remaining tickets left to distribute, A = (300 - 10m)

Explanation:

a) Let the number of choir members be m

Let the number of tickets remaining after the distribution be A

Each choir member is to get 10 tickets each.

Number of tickets to be given to the members = 10m

original number of tickets = 300

So, number of tickets remaining after distribution, A = 300 - 10m (provided that m ≤ 30)

b) The independent variable in this expression is m (the number of choir members)

And the dependent variable is A (the number of tickets left after the distribution which depends on the number of choir members, m)

Hope this Helps!!!
