Mustafa’s soccer team is planning a school dance as a fundraiser. The DJ charges $200 and decorations cost $100. The team decides to charge each student $5.00 to attend the dance. If n represents the number of students attending the dance, which equation can be used to find the number of students needed to make $1,500 in profit?

First, add the profit wanted with the costs.


1500 + 200 + 100 = 1800


The total amount wanted is 1800. Each student pays $5, and so you divide by 5


1800/5 = 360


360 students must show up.


The equation used is:


Let student = s


Total cost = 200 + 100

Charge = 5n

Profit = 1500


1500 = 5n - 300 (is equation)


Hope this helps
