You are helping to plan an awards banquet for your school, and you need to rent tables to seat 180 people. Tables come in two sizes. Small tables seat 4 people and large tables seat 6 people *write an equation modeling the situation

Answer:

An equation modeling the situation  is : 4 m + 6 n  = 180

Step-by-step explanation:

Here,  the total number of guests in the banquet hall = 180

Let us assume number of tables ordered  with capacity of

4 people each  = m

And number of tables ordered  with capacity of 6 people each  = n

So, total number of people in m tables = m x ( Capacity of 1 table)

=  m x (4)  = 4 m

And, total number of people in n tables = n x ( Capacity of 1 table)

=  n x (6)  = 6 n

So, the total capacity of ( m + n) tables  = 4 m + 6 n

Also, the total required capacity  = 180

⇒  4 m + 6 n  = 180

Hence, an equation modeling the situation  is : 4 m + 6 n  = 180
