Answer:

[tex]39\ parking\ attendants[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x -----> the number of blue lots

y-----> the number of red lots

we know that

[tex]x+y=15[/tex] ------> equation A

we have that

[tex]x=0.60(15)=9\ blue\ lots[/tex]

[tex]y=0.40(15)=6\ red\ lots[/tex]

The total parking attendants required for tonight's event is equal to the product of the number of blue lots by three plus the product of the number of red lots by two

so

[tex]9(3)+6(2)=39\ parking\ attendants[/tex]

Answer:

39
