Question

James and Bethany Morrison are celebrating their 10th anniversary by having a reception hall they have a budget 3500 for the reception hall charges 50 clean up fee plus $38 per person find the greatest number of people they may invite and still way within their budget Please I don’t need a detailed explanation just the answer

Answer 1

Given:

Total budget = $3500

The hall charges a $50 clean up fee plus $38 per person

Let the number of persons = x

So, the total cost = 38x + 50

The greatest number of people will follow the inequality:

`38x+50\le3500`

solve for x:

`\begin{gathered} 38x\le3500-50 \\ 38x\le3450 \\ x\le(3450)/(38) \\ \\ x\le90.789 \end{gathered}`

So, the answer will be:

The greatest number of people they can invite = 90 persons
