On the day of the performance of a certain play, each ticket [#permalink]
 27 Jul 2003, 09:16
. On the day of the performance of a certain play, each ticket that regularly sells for less than $10.00 is sold for half price plus $0.50, and each ticket that regularly sells for $10.00 or more is sold for half price plus $1.00. On the day of the performance, a person purchases a total of y tickets, of which x regularly sell for $9.00 each and the rest regularly sell for $12.00 each. What is the amount paid, in dollars, for the y tickets ?

X tickets for (9/2)+0.5=$5
Y-X tickets for (12/2)+1=$7
Total revenue is 5X+7(Y-X)=7Y-2X
Am I missing something?
