Q1 · Each year a school organises a concert

1 Each year a school organises a concert. (a) (i) In 2004 the cost of organising the concert was $ 385. In 2005 the cost was 10% less than in 2004. Calculate the cost in 2005. [2] (ii) The cost of $ 385 in 2004 was 10% more than the cost in 2003. Calculate the cost in 2003. [2] (b) (i) In 2006 the number of tickets sold was 210. The ratio Number of adult tickets : Number of student tickets was 23 : 19. How many adult tickets were sold? [2] (ii) Adult tickets were $ 2.50 each and student tickets were $ 1.50 each. Calculate the total amount received from selling the tickets. [2] (iii) In 2006 the cost of organising the concert was $ 410. Calculate the percentage profit in 2006. [2] (c) In 2007, the number of tickets sold was again 210. Adult tickets were $ 2.60 each and student tickets were $ 1.40 each. The total amount received from selling the 210 tickets was $ 480. How many student tickets were sold? [4]
