Systems of equations question: "You are to choose between 2 different bands..."

Can you please help me with this question I stumbled upon
"You are to choose between 2 different bands: Aero-Rap charges a rate of $470 and then $1.25 per ticket to play for the evening. Mosaic charges $350 plus $2.00 for each ticket sold. Write linear equations showing the cost for each band. Graph each of your lines to determine when the costs will be equal. Use substitution and elmination to verify your solultion from the graph is correct.
-i know it seems simple but for me anything will help

Start with defining name of variables:

Cost for Aero-Rap Band = A

Cost for Mosaic Band = M

Number of tickets sold = N


Now write the linear equation of (cost) for each band......
