Jon is trying to decide where to buy discounted movie tickets. Costless sells a pack of 10 tickets for $70, and the website, Movies Unlimited, sells them at 8 tickets for $60. What is the unit price at each company? (1 point)
Costless pack of 10 is $
/ticket. Movies Unlimited pack of 8 is $
/ticket.
Costless pack of 10 is $70/10 tickets = $7/ticket.
Movies Unlimited pack of 8 is $60/8 tickets = $7.5/ticket.
To find the unit price at each company, you need to divide the total cost of the tickets by the number of tickets in each pack.
For Costless:
Total cost = $70
Number of tickets = 10
Unit price = Total cost / Number of tickets
Unit price = $70 / 10
For Movies Unlimited:
Total cost = $60
Number of tickets = 8
Unit price = Total cost / Number of tickets
Unit price = $60 / 8
Calculating the unit price:
For Costless:
Unit price = $70 / 10
Unit price = $7/ticket
For Movies Unlimited:
Unit price = $60 / 8
Unit price = $7.50/ticket
Therefore, the unit price at Costless is $7/ticket and at Movies Unlimited is $7.50/ticket.
To find the unit price at each company, you need to divide the total price by the number of tickets.
1. Unit price at Costless:
