A high school chorus has $1000 in its school account at the beginning of the year. They are putting on a fall concert to raise money for a trip later in the year. At the concert last year they sold tickets for $10 each. If they sell tickets at the same price the total amount in the chorus account can be represented by the linear function T = 10x + 1000.
