A group of friends wants to go to the amusement park. They have $387.75 to spend on parking and admission. Parking is $5.50, and tickets cost $34.75 per person, including tax. How many people can go to the amusement park?

Step 1:

Subtract $19 from total

366.50 - 19 = 347.5

Step 2:

Divide this total by the ticket price

347.50 / 34.75 = 10

Step 3:

You have your answer

10 people can go to the amusement park

as many as 11 people

Step-by-step explanation:

n = # of people

5.50 + 34.75n ≤ 387.75

subtract 5.5 from each side to get:

34.75n ≤ 382.25

divide each side by 34.75

n ≤ 11

answer

d. 10

explanation

the distance from point y to wx is the height of the triangle.

using pythagoras theorem,

group similar terms to get,

this implies that,

take positive square root of both sides to get,

this implies that,
