Question

Ms. Clandestine is planning to take her study group on a field trip to an amusement park. The regular cost is $25 per person. There is a party special that costs $15 per person with an additional $150 fee for a private room where students can eat lunch. Ms. Clandestine is trying to decide if she should use the regular price or the party special.

Question 1:Write an equation to show the total cost of the regular price with x people.
Group of answer choices

y=5x + 2

y=2x + 5

y=25x

None of the above

Question 2:Write an equation to show the total cost of the party special with x people.
Group of answer choices

y=15x + 25

y=15x + 150

y=150x + 15

None of the above

Question 3: What is the solution to this system?

Group of answer choices

(-375, 15)

(-15, 375)

(375,15)

(15,375)

Question 4: What does the solution mean in relation to THIS PROBLEM?

Answer 1

Question 1:

Multiply the regular price by the number of people (x)

Y = 25x

Question 2:

Multiply the special rate by number of people(x) and add the cost of the room:

Y = 15x + 150

Question 3:

Replace x with a positive value and solve for y, which will be larger than the x value

Answer (15,375)

Question 4:

This means for 15 people the total cost for the special rate would be $375
