Answer:

$450

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total profit earned be [tex]x[/tex].

Profit earned from selling concert tickets = [tex]\frac{2}{3}\times x[/tex]

[tex]1500 = \dfrac{2}{3} x[/tex]

[tex]x = \dfrac{3}{2}\times 1500 = 2250[/tex]

Profit earned from selling merchandise = [tex]\frac{1}{5}\times x = \frac{1}{5}\times 2250 = 450[/tex]
