Answer:

P
\leq 6

Explanation:

Set up Equation:

17.50 + 36.25(p)
\leq 235

Simplify Expression to Solve for how many people can go the park, using inverse operations.

36.25(p)
\leq 235 - (17.50)

36.25(p)
\leq 217.5

p
\leq 217.5/36.25

p
\leq 6

Therefore, no more than six people can attend the amusement park.
