Answer: a. p = c/5 - 43 b. 17 people
Step-by-step explanation:
c= 5p + 215
A) a said solve for p so we will solve for p in the equation.
c= 5p + 215 First Subtract 215 from both sides
-215 -215
c - 215 = 5p Now divide both sides by 5.
p = c/5 - 43
B) If c is the total cost of hosting a birthday party then we will input 300 into the equation for c and solve for p.
300 = 5p + 215 First subtract 215 from both sides
-215 -215
85 = 5p Divide both sides by 5
p = 17
This means 17 people can attend the meeting if Allies parents are willing to spend $300.
