Members of a baseball team raised $1176 to go to a tournament. They rented a bus for
$753.50 and budgeted $32.50 per player for meals. Write and solve an equation
which can be used to determine x, the number of players the team can bring to the
tournament.

Respuesta :

Answer:

The team can bring 13 players to the tournament.

Step-by-step explanation:

$1176 - total money

$753.50 - single payment for bus

$32.50 - cost of a meal for one player

1176 - 753,5 = 422,5

$422.50 - money that can be spent on meals

422,5 : 32,5 = 13

The linear equation is 32.5x + 753.50 = 1176. Then the numbe of the players will be 13.

What is the linear system?

A linear system is one in which the parameter in the equation has a degree of one. It might have one, two, or even more variables.

Members of a baseball team raised $1176 to go to a tournament.

They rented a bus for $753.50 and budgeted $32.50 per player for meals.

Let x be the number of the player. Then we have

32.5x + 753.50 = 1176

Solving for x, we have

32.5x = 422.5

      x = 13
