Question 2 Part B What was the cost of each ticket, not including the tax? (1 point) Responses $4 $4 $5 $5 $6 $6 $7
The correct answer for Part A is:
- Subtract 19 from 22 to find out how many more girls than boys went to the concert.
- Add 19 and 22 to find the total number of students who attended the concert.
- Subtract $10 from $256 to find the total cost of the tickets without the tax.
For Part B, to find the cost of each ticket without the tax, you should divide the total cost of the tickets without the tax by the total number of tickets (boys + girls). Let's do the calculation:
Total cost of tickets without tax = $256 - $10 = $246
Total number of students who attended the concert = 19 boys + 22 girls = 41
Cost of each ticket, not including tax = $246 / 41 = $6
Therefore, the cost of each ticket, not including the tax, is $6.
