Before deciding whether to fly or drive, the family decided to estimate a budget of $1,400 for airfare. One airline has several different airfares and charges $25 round-trip for each bag that is checked. Since there are 4 members of the family and each person would check 1 bag, Luis wrote the equation 4(t+25)=1,400 to find the maximum cost per ticket, t, that will fit their budget.

What is the maximum cost per ticket that will be in their budget?

Answer:

Explanation:

350 dollars per ticket.

4(t+25)=1,400

4t+100=1,400

-100 -100

4t=1,300

4t/4 =t

1,300/4=350
