Answers
The total earned money is $1,355.95
Money from lane rentals = $842.72
Money from concession stand = $412.38
Decrease in lane rentals = 1/8
Increase in concessions = 1/2
Thus,
Money from lane rentals: -
842.72 x ( 8/8 - 1/8 )
= 842.72 x 7/8
= 737.38
Money from stand concessions -
= 412.38 x (1 + 1/2)
= 412.38 x 1.5
= 618.57
Total amount earned - 737.38 + 618.57
= $1,355.95
Thus, the total earned money is $1,355.95
total earning on friday & saturday = 2611.05$
Step-by-step explanation:
On Friday, a bowling alley made $842.72 from lane rentals and $412.38 from the concession stand.
Amount earned in lane rentals and concessions on Friday = 842.72 + 412.38
= 1255.10 $
On Saturday, their lane rentals were down by 1/8
=> Lane rentals = 842.72 (1 - 1/8) = 737.38 $
On Saturday, concessions increased by One-half.
=> Lane rentals =412.38 (1+ 1/2) = 618.57 $
Earning on Saturday = 737.38 + 618.57 = 1355.95 $
total earning on friday & saturday = 1255.10 + 1355.95 = 2611.05$
