    That’s the Ticket!
    There are 40 rows of seats in the Varsity Theater, with 20 seats in
    each row. During regular performances, all seats cost $12.
    1. a. A movie rents for $275 per performance. Explain how you could find
    the theater owner’s profit for one performance if you knew the number
    of tickets sold. Ignore costs that are not mentioned.

    _____________________________________________________________________________________

    b. Write an expression for the theater owner’s profit if n people


    buy tickets for a performance.

    _____________________________________________________________________________________

    c. Evaluate the expression if n = 124.

    _____________________________________________________________________________________

    For a special movie premiere, the theater owner decided to charge


    $20 per ticket for the first r rows of the theater and $15 for the
    remaining rows.
    2. Explain how you could find the owner’s total income if you knew the
    value of r and you knew that all of the tickets were sold.

    a. Find the income in the first r rows if all of the tickets were sold.

    b. Find the income in the remaining r rows if all of the tickets were sold.

    _____________________________________________________________________________________

    c. Find the total income for r = 16.

    4. Write and simplify an expression for the owner’s profit if tickets are
    priced at $20 per ticket in the first r rows and $15 per ticket in the
    remaining rows, if all the seats are sold.

    _________________________________________________________________________________________

    5. Evaluate the expression you wrote in Question 4 for r = 16 and show


    that the result equals your answer for Question 3c.
