Question

A group of friends wants to go to the amusement park. They have $235.75 to spend on parking and admission. Parking is $6.25, and tickets cost $25.50 per person, including tax. Write and solve an equation which can be used to determine pp, the number of people who can go to the amusement park.

Answer 1

Answer:

The equation for the number of people is 25.50x + 6.25 = 235.75 and the number of people who can go to the amusement park are 9.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have,

Spend on parking and admission = $235.75  

Spend on parking  = $6.25

Cost of ticket per person = $25.50

Let number of number of people = x

Now,

According to the question;

25.50x + 6.25 = 235.75

So, this the equation for number of number of people.

Now,

25.50x + 6.25 = 235.75

25.50x = 229.50

x = 9

So, number of number of people is 9, which we find out using the above mentioned equation.

Hence, we can say that the equation for the number of people is 25.50x + 6.25 = 235.75 and the number of people who can go to the amusement park are 9.
