GP 2 Week 4

The Booster Club hired a hip hop group for a fund-raiser.  The club guaranteed the group a fee of $1500 plus $4.50 for each ticket sold.  There are 1,132 seats in the auditorium.  What is the greatest possible amount of money the band can earn for a performance?  The least amount?






booster club is an organization that is formed to support (e.g. coordinate events, raise money, etc.) an associated club, sports team, or organization.

  1. The greatest amount they can make is infinite. This can be set up as a equation with a value for x. Since x is unknown u can plug any integer in for x giving u a infinite amount of possible answers.
    Since this is a equation ...1500 plus 4.50 times x.. u can always plug zero in for x giving you a least amount of a plain 1500 dollars

  2. The greatest amount is $6594. You do $4.50 times 1132 plus $1500 and you get $6594. The least amount will be $1500.

    1. I agree with Alexus. If you do 4.50x1132=5094. Then you add 5094+1500 and get $6594. The least amount you can get is $1500.

    2. i agree with Alexus because if you take 4.50 multiply it by 1132 it would give you 5094. then you would add 5094 with 1500 and you would get 6594. the least you could get would be 1500.

  5. The greatest amount is 6,594. $4.50•1,132=5,094// 5,094+1500=6,594. The band will earn that much $ if the seats are filled in 1,132.

  9. The greatest amount is 6,594 because when you take $4.50 x 1,132 seats you get $5,094.Then you add 1500 for the group fee, which gives you 6,594. The least amount is 1500 because you don't have to sell any tickets but u still have the group fee.

    1. I agree with Roger the greatest amount is 6,594 I know this because I did 4.50×1,132 which equals 5,094. Then I added 1,500 for the group fee, and I got 6,594. The least amount of tickets is 1,500 because you don't have to sell the tickets but you have to pay the group fee
