Answer: 22
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question the, we are informed that members of a lacrosse team raised $1352.50 to go to a tournament and that they rented a bus for $802.50 and budgeted $25 per player for meals.
The equation which can be used to determine p, the number of players the team can bring to the tournament would be calculated as:
802.50 + 25p = 1352.50
25p = 1352.50 - 802.50
25p = 550
p = 550/25
p = 22
They can bring 22 players to the tournament
Answer:
16
Step-by-step explanation:
let the number be x , then
x = 15 ( multiply both sides by 4 to clear the fraction )
3x = 60 ( divide both sides by 3 )
x = 20 , then
× 20 = 4 × 4 = 16
A + c = 158......a = 158 - c
9.90a + 5.50c = 1265
9.90(158 - c) + 5.50c = 1265
1564.20 - 9.90c + 5.50c = 1265
- 4.40c = 1265 - 1564.20
-4.40c = - 299.20
c = -299.20/-4.40
c = 68 <=== 68 child tickets sold
