Question

Mrs. Perry is taking a group of students to the Clark Planetarium where tickets cost $7 each. The bus will cost $50 and she has a budget of $200. How many people can attend under these constraints?​

Answer 1

Answer:
71 people can attend under these constraints

Explanation:

So you write the slope intercept form equation which is 7x+50=200
You got 7x because every tickets cost 7
You add 50 because of the bus
And you’re wondering how many people are able to go by just spending about $200

So you subtract 50 on both side and you are left with 7x=150 so you have to divide 7 on both side next and you get about 71.4... so basically just round it up to 71 people
