Answer:
Option C) 27 people
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x ----> the number of people
we know that
The cost of decorations ($35) plus the number of people (x) multiplied by the cost per person on food ($8.50) must be equal to $264.50
so
The linear equation that represent this situation is

solve for x
Subtract 35 both sides


Divide by 8.50 both sides


Subtract 12 from each side
so it should look like this
-12v=-2v-18
now add 2v to each side
so it should look like this
-10v=-18
now divdie each side by -10
and you should get
v=9/5 or 1 4/5
Answer: i dont know sorry
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
12/16 = 3/4
I divided both sides by 4.
Hope this helps!
