per person, including tax. Write and solve an equation which can be used to
determine p, the number of people who can go to the amusement park.

Respuesta :

Answer:

1) The equation to determine the the number of people who can go to the amusement park is 14.75 + 13.25·p = 94.25

2) The number of people who can go to the amusement park is people

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

The amount the group of friends have to spend on parking and admission = $94.25

The cost parking = $14.75

The cost of tickets per person = $13.25

The variable we let to represent the number of people who can go to the amusement park be "p"

1) The equation that can be used to determine "p" is therefore, given as follows;

14.75 + 13.25·p = 94.25

2) Therefore, we have, by making "p" the subject of the above equation;

p = (94.25 - 14.75)/13.25 = 6

Therefore, the number of people who can go to the amusement park, p = 6 people.

Answer:

Answer: 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation: 13.25p+14.75=94.25
