Answer:

5

Explanation:

total cost of hotel stay = cost per night + tax + parking charge + tips

tax = 10% x 90

= 0.1 x 90 = 9

let x = number of stays

90x + 9x + 12 + 30 ≤ 600

combine like terms

99x ≤ 558

x ≤ 5.6

if they stay 5 nights, they would spend 537

if they stay 6 nights, they would spend 636
