Answer:

Jacob can have up to 5 guests at his graduation party because 50 - 22.50 is 27.50 and 27.50/5.50 is 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

To start off you would subtract 22.50 from 50 leaving you with 27.50. From there you would account for the number of attendees. Since 27.50/5.50 equals 5 the maximum amount of guests Jacob can have at his graduation party is 5.
