Question

The carter family budgets a total of 2,700 for a ski vacation in Colorado if they plan to go spend 275$ per day and 1,000 on meals about how many days n can the carter family go on vacation ?

Answer 1

275n + 1000 = 2700

They will go 6 days on vacation.

Explanation:

Given that the Carter family wants to go on vacation with a budget of $ 2700, of which $ 1000 will be used exclusively for food, and for each day of stay $ 275 will be spent, the formula to obtain the number of days they can spend on vacation is following:

1000 + 275n = 2700

275n = 2700 - 1000

n = 1700/275

n = 6.18

Therefore, with this amount, the Carters will be able to spend 6 days on vacation, and they will have money left over.
