Answer:

Total cost= 99 + 2.97x

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Fixed cost= $99

Variable cost= 3% per person

First, we need to calculate the 3% of 99:

Unitary variable cost= 99*0.03= $2.97

Now, we establish the total cost structure:

Total cost= 99 + 2.97x

x= number of people in attendance

Finally, suppose 200 people attend the party:

Total cost= 99 + 2.97*200

Total cost= $693
