Money available = 275

Parking cost = 18.25

Cost of each ticket = 39.50

x = number of people

The total cost, parking cost + ( number of people * price of each ticket ) , must be less or equal to the money available (275)

18.25+ 39.50x ≤ 275

Solve for x:

39.50x ≤ 275 -18.25

39.50x ≤ 256.75

x ≤ 256.75 / 39.50

x ≤ 6.5
