Question

Jennifer is planning a trip. The hotel costs $50 per night and her flights cost $150. She has a budget of $500 for the hotel and her flights. How many nights can she afford in the hotel, while staying within her budget?

Answer 1

Answer:

7

Explanation:

Let y represent the number of nights Jenifer can spend in the hotel

50y + 150$\leq$500

50y$\leq$500-150

50y$\leq$350

y$\leq$350/50

y$\leq$7

Hence Jenifer can spend 7 nights in the hotel
