Quizplus · Accepted Answer

To find the total receipts from the sale of both types of tickets, we need to multiply the price by the number sold for each ticket type and then add the two products.

For floor seating: 
$14.75 × 100 = $1,475.00

For balcony seating: 
$11.60 × 1,000 = $11,600.00

Total receipts: 
$1,475.00 + $11,600.00 = $13,075.00

Therefore, the answer is B, $13,075.00.
