Answer:
10 guests
Step-by-step explanation:
Devin wants to play lazer tag for his birthday. He is comparing the cost of two companies.
Let us represent additional guests = g
Lazer Zone charges $50 for parties, and an additional $10 per guest.
=$50 + $10 × g
50 + 10g
For fun place
Fun Palace charges $90 for parties, and an additional $6 per guest.
= $90 + $6 × g
90 + 6g
For how many ?
We equate both Equations together
= 50 + 10g = 90 + 6g
Collect like terms
10g - 6g = 90 - 50
4g = 40
g = 40/4
g = 10
Hence, g = 10 guests
Therefore, the number of guests for which the cost of both companies is the same is 10 guests
