Question

A catering company charges $300 plus $40 per guest for a wedding. Sarah and Eric do not want to spend more than $5,000 on catering. Write and solve an inequality in terms of the number of guests, g, that can be invited

Answer 1

Y=300+40g
Y=5000
5000=300+40g
-300
4700=40g/40
117.5=g
About 117 people without going over budget.
