Question

A stadium has 46,000 seats. Seats sell for $30 in section A, $24 in section B, and $18 in section c. The number of seats in section A equals the total number of seats in both b and c. Suppose the stadium takes in $1,188,600 from each sold-out event.How many seats does each section hold??

Answer 1

Answer:

In this question, the number of seat of A equal the number total seats on B and C. The equation would be:

A=B=C

Total seat= A+B+C= A+A+A=3A

The total revenue for the stadium is $1,193,400. Then the total number of the seat would be:

revenue= total seats*price per seat

$1,193,400= A * $30 + B*24 + C*18

$1,193,400= A * $30 + A*24 + A*18

$1,193,400= A * $72

A= $1,193,400/ 72

A= 16575

Each section hold 16575 seats
