A band that will be the opening act for a concert charges a $700.00 flat fee as well as 16% of all profits from ticket sales. If the band earns $1,200, how much was made in total ticket sales for the show?

Answer :

Americ
x= $ from total ticket sales

$700 + (16%)x = $1200
$700 + 0.16x = $1200
subtract 700 from both sides
0.16x= $500
divide both sides by 0.16
x= $3,125 total ticket sales

Hope this helps! :)
