Answer:

X = 8 people can go to the amusement park.

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on the given conditions, formulate:  5.5  + 14  × x  = 117.5  

Rearrange unknown terms to the left side of the equation: 14 x  = 117.5  − 5.5  

Calculate the sum or difference: 14 x  = 112  

Divide both sides of the equation by the coefficient of variable: x  = 112  ÷ 14  

Calculate the product or quotient: x  = 8  

Find the smallest integer greater than or equal to  x  = 8 :  

Answer:  x = 8
