A band has been playing weekly at local venue. They have been making a fixed amount, plus they receive additional money for every ticket sold. Last week they sold 40 tickets and were paid $200.The week before that they sold 70 tickets and were paid $260. Let x represent the number of tickets sold and y represent the amount the band will be paid. Construct a linear function to represent the relationship between the number of tickets sold and the amount the band will be paid.

a variable is any characteristics, number, or quantity that can be measured or counted. a variable may also be called a data item. hope i !

the answer is 1030 it's very simple math.

a) at most means it can cost $12 or less

so the inequality sign would be ≤

you would then need to multiply the number of toppings by the 0.35 for each one and add it to the cost of the cheese pizza.

the equation would be 9.99 + 0.35x ≤ 12

b) using the above equation:

9.99 + 0.35x ≤ 12

subtract 9.99 from each side:

0.35x ≤2.01

divide both sides by 0.35:

x ≤ 2.01 / 0.35

x ≤5.74

at most you could have 5 toppings.

the 5 topping pizza would cost: 0.35 x 5 = 1.75 + 9.99 = $11.74
