Answer:

Formula: C= $15n + $250

50 People: $1000

100 People: $1750

Formula: n= (C- $250)/ 15

$4000 Budget: 250 Guests

$2000 Budget: 116.67 Guests

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the rental is $250 with an additional charge of $15 per person, we write this as C = $250 + $15n.

With the given equation, simply substitute n for the amount of guests.

C = $250 + $15(50) = $1000

C = $250 + $15(100) = $1750

To solve for n, everything would need to be moved to isolate n. This can be achieved by first subtracting $250 from each side: C- 250= 15n

Then divide both sides by 15, making the new equation: (C-250)/15 = n

Again, substitute C with allowed cost to find the amount of guests allowed.

n = ($4000- 250)/ 15 = 250 People

n = ($2000-250)/15 = 116.67 People
