Question

A corporate team-building event costs $19plus an additional $1 per attendee. How many attendees can there be, at most, if the budget for the corporate team-building event is $31?

Answer 1

There can be at most
`12` attendees in a corporate team-building event.

Explanation:

Let
`x` denotes number of attendees in a corporate team-building event.

Fixed cost = $19

Cost charged per attendee = $1

Budget for the corporate team-building event = $31

Therefore,

`19+1(x)\leq 31\\19+x\leq 31\\x\leq 31-19\\x\leq 12`

So, there can be at most
`12` attendees in a corporate team-building event.
