By solving a linear equation, we will see that the total cost for renting the bus is $90.
<h3>What was the total cost of renting the bus, in dollars?</h3>
Let's say that the total cost is C.
When there are 20 students, each student should pay:
p = C/20
When the other 10 students are added (for a total of 30) each student pays:
p' = C/30.
We know that the cost for each of the original 20 students decreased by $1.50, so:
p' = p - $1.50
Then we have 3 equations to work with:
p = C/20
p' = C/30.
p' = p - $1.50
Now we can replace the first and second equations into the third one:
C/30 = C/20 - $1.50
Now we can solve this linear equation for C:
C/20 - C/30 = $1.50
C*( 1/20 - 1/30) = $1.50
C*(30/600 - 20/600) = $1.50
C*(10/600) = $1.50
C*(1/60) = $1.50
C = 60*$1.50 = $90
So the total cost for renting the bus is $90.

Answer:
2 dozens, $41
Step-by-step explanation:
Given data
Man Street Florist charges
$18 for a dozen roses and a
$5 delivery fee
let the number of dozens be x
and the total charge for x dozens be y
hence
y= 18x+5--------------1
Blooms and Bouquets
charges $20 for a
dozen roses and a $1
delivery fee.
let the number of dozens be x
and the total charge for x dozens be y
hence
y= 20x+1 -------------2
Equate 1 and 2 we have
18x+5=20x+1
20x-18x= 5-1
2x= 4
x= 4/2
x= 2
Hence the number of dozens is 2
the cost is (put x= 2 in eqn 1 or 2)
y= 20(2)+1
y= 40+1
y= $41
