Question

A group of friends wants to go to the amusement park. They have no more than $160 to spend on parking and admission. Parking is $8, and tickets cost $38 per person, including tax. Write and solve an inequality which can be used to determine pp, the number of people who can go to the amusement park.

Answer 1

Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on the information given in the question, the inequality which can be used to determine x, the number of people who can go to the amusement park will be:

8 + 38(x) ≤ 160

8 + 38x ≤ 160

38x ≤ 160 - 8

38x ≤ 152

x ≤ 152/38

x ≤ 4

The number of people that can go to the amusement park will be at most 4.

Hence the answer is 4.
