Answer:

15x = 810.75

53.38

Step-by-step explanation:

A theater company has raised $810.75 by selling 15 floor seat tickets. Each ticket costs the same.

Part A: If 15 floor seats where bought up and it equaled 810.75 dollars then that means. You would have to multiply the number of seats by the 15 floor tickets

Part B:  Divided it

Answer: Answer: Okay so for Part A, we first need to come up with a variable. Lets have t=cost of 1 ticket. So you know that the company gained $810.75 by selling 15 tickets each costing $t. So if one ticket costs $t, then 15 tickets cost $15t, which is equal to $810.75. SO now you can form an equation: 15t=810.75. Part B: Therefore, p = 810.75 / 15

p is the variable for price and to find the value for each ticket take the total value divided by the number of tickets.

p = $54.05
