A movie theater charges $4.50 for children and $8.00 for
adults
The next day, the manager announces that she wants to see
them take in $10,000 in tickets. If there are 240 seats in the
house and only five movie showings planned that day, is it
possible to meet that goal?

Answer:

No, the max is $9600.

Step-by-step explanation:

240 x 8=1920.

1920 x 5=$9600.
It’s not possible
Because 240 seats times the highest cost which is $8 will be $1920 and if you times that by 5 movies the total will be $9,600. So it’s not possible to make $10,000.

Hope this helps.
