    Answer:

    110 students

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Let the total money raised = R ($)

    Let the number of student = x

    Proposed ticket cost to activity night = $5

    (a) R = 5x

        x = R/5———————————————– (1)

    (b)  Total money to be raised to pay for rent  of $200 and have a left over of  $ 350 is = $(200 + 350)

               R    = $ 550

    Substituting the value of R in equation (1), the number of student (x) can be found:

    x = R/5

     = 550/5

    = 110 students

    The student council must sell 110 tickets to students in order to achieve their goal.
