Answer:
a) 891.5 = 475 + 29.75p b) p = 14
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation will be the total amount of money they raised equals the cost of the bus plus the cost of the meal per player. This will set up the equation to find out how many players can go if they use all of their money.
p represents the number of players on the team
891.5 = 475 + 29.75p
Subtract the cost of the bus from both sides
416.5 = 29.75p
Now divide by the cost of the meals
14 = p
They can bring 14 players to the tournament.
