Question

The theater department charged $5 per ticket for admission to the fall play, My Fair Lady. Additionally, they asked for a donation of x dollars per ticket to help buy new costumes. On Friday night, they sold 80 tickets to the fall play, and everyone who bought a ticket donated.

Answer 1

$(400+80x)

Explanation:

We are required to find the total income on Friday Night

Ticket costs $5 each and they sold 80 tickets

Total ticket Sales = 80 X $5 =$400

There was a donation of $x per ticket, so for 80 tickets, there was a donation of $80x.

Total Income on Friday Night=Ticket Sale+Donations= $(400+80x)
