QUESTION: 128

A college student spent $119 on tickets for family and friends to a sporting event.
If tickets were $7 and $10, and she bought an equal number of both kinds of tickets, how many $7 tickets did she buy?

So, 7v + 10v= 119
Now combine the terms and continue solving the equation for v.
17v =119
v = 7

QUESTION: 130

During Friday night's high school performance of the play Seven Brides for Seven Brothers, 76% of the seats in the performing arts center (with a seating capacity of 500 people) were occupied, and three-quarters of those attending were parents.
How many high school students attended the play?

95
100
76
285

Answer(s): A

Explanation:

The first step is to calculate the number of total playgoers by multiplying the total seats available by the percentage.
500 × 0.76 = 380
Since three quarters (75%) of those attending were parents, that means that one quarter, or 25%, were high school students; this is the answer we are going to calculate. Therefore, multiply the number of total playgoers by the percentage of students to find out how many students attended the performance.
380 × 0.25 = 95 students
