Answer:

$66.

Explanation:

Inversely Proportional, so C = k/n where C = the cost per person, n is the number of people and k is a constant to be found:

Inserting the given values:

30 = k/44

So k = 30*44 = 1320 and the equation of variation is

C = 1320/n.

When 20 people are on the trip we have:

C = 1320/ 20

= $66.
