For a large group of students, the boston ballet charges a flat rate of 50.00, plus 15.00 per ticket. How much would a school need to take 25 students to see the nutcracker? Use the equation with two variables to solve the problem

1 answer

Let's say the number of tickets needed to take 25 students to see the Nutcracker is x.

According to the given information, the Boston Ballet charges a flat rate of $50.00, plus $15.00 per ticket.

So, the total cost would be: 50 + 15x.

Since we need to find the total cost for taking 25 students to see the Nutcracker, we can substitute x with 25 in the equation.

Total cost = 50 + 15(25)
Total cost = 50 + 375
Total cost = $<<50+375=425>>425.

Therefore, the school would need to pay $425 to take 25 students to see the Nutcracker.
