Answer:

5.52 or less

Explanation:

The total cost must be less than or equal to the budget amount

Total cost limit ≥ fee + cost per ticket * number of tickets

542.94 ≥ 45.82 + cost per ticket * 90

Subtract 45.82 from each side

542.94 - 45.82≥ 45.82 -45.82+ cost per ticket * 90

497.12 ≥ cost per ticket * 90

Divide each side by 90

497.12≥cost per ticket * 90

497.12/90≥ cost per ticket * 90/90

5.52 ≥ cost per ticket
