Answer quick pls!

Jose wants to plan a skate party for his younger cousin's birthday. Skate Land charges a $65 flat fee and $7.50 per person.
Skate Land uses the equation C = 7.50p + 65 (C = total cost; p = number of people ) to calculate the total cost
based on the number of people attending. Find the total cost, C, of the birthday party if Jose invites 30 friends and family
members.

Answer:

$290

Explanation:

We can use the equation that Skate Land created to find the total cost

C = 7.50p + 65

p = people so if we have 30 people, we have to solve 7.50 x 30

C = 225 + 65

we can now add the flat fee of $65 to get the total cost for the birthday part

C = $290

hope this helps :)
