Answer:

The number of tickets he has bought since getting the discount card is:

                                           15

Step-by-step explanation:

The cost of the card is: $ 7

Cost of 1 movie ticket is: $ 5.50

Total amount spent by Parker is: $ 89.50

This means that the amount that the movie tickets  will cost is: $ (89.50-7)

i.e.   $ 82.50

Now, number of movie tickets that he bought is:

Number of movie tickets= 82.50/5.50

i.e.

Number of movie tickets= 15
