Answer:
100=15.50p-7.00
6 people
(p can be any variable)
Step-by-step explanation:
100 is the amount of money Ms. Hernandez will spend, 7 is the amount she will have to spend on parking, and 15.50 is the cost per person to go to the zoo.
How to solve the equation
- 100=15.50p-7 You would first have to isolate the variable, add 7 to both sides
- 107=15.50p You would then divide each side by 15.50 to completely isolate p
- 6.9032258=p Since you cannot have a fraction of a person, the total amount of people that can go to the zoo, including Ms. Hernandez is 6
