Answer:
12 (p/2 + 17.50) = 750 equation can be used to get regular price of enrollment.
Step-by-step explanation:
So when a new student gets enrolled by paying a $17.50 application fee and gets a value of price halved at p/2
where p = regular price of enrollment
So in reality, for the student to be enrolled he/she must pay = (p/2) + $17.50 application fee to be able to get that special offer.
So Twelve new students enrolled, meaning they paid: 12 (p/2 + 17.50 application fee)
The amount they all paid is $750.
To get the regular price of enrollment from the price that included the application fees, the equation to use would be: 12 (p/2 + 17.50) = 750

Answer: 175,000 dollars</h3>
====================================================
Work Shown:
2/3 of 15,000 = (2/3)*15000 = 10,000
This means 10,000 people take the shuttle bus to the park. If each person pays $5 to take the bus, then the city earns 5*10,000 = 50,000 dollar through this option.
The rest pay for parking, so 15,000-10,000 = 5,000 people pay for parking. At $25 each, this amounts to 25*5,000 = 125,000 dollars earned through this option.
Overall, the city earns a total of 50,000+125,000 = 175,000 dollars
Side note: this assumes that the remaining 5,000 people all take separate cars and no single car has more than one person. This is very unrealistic as there are likely to be families or carpools of some kind. So in reality, the answer shown above is an upper estimate of the total revenue.
