amy's orchestra teacher is planning a fall concert the cost of renting the music hall is $2000 he decides to charge each person $5.50 attend the concert to cover the cost of renting the hall how many people will have to attend to cover the cost??

Assistance needed.

5.50x=2000

/5.5 /5.5

x=363.63

so around 364 people!!

:D

To determine how many people will have to attend the concert to cover the cost of renting the music hall, you need to divide the total cost of renting the hall by the ticket price per person.

In this case, the cost of renting the music hall is $2000, and the ticket price per person is $5.50.

To calculate the number of people needed to cover the cost, divide the total cost by the ticket price:

Number of people needed = Total cost / Ticket price

Number of people needed = $2000 / $5.50

Calculating this gives us:

Number of people needed = 363.63

Since you can't have a fraction of a person, you would round up to the nearest whole number. Therefore, 364 people will need to attend the concert to cover the cost of renting the music hall.
