Aidan · Answer 1

The answer is Ms Daye can bring up to 6 people to the zoo.

x - the number of people that she can bring to the zooThe parking will cost $7: a = 7Admission tickets will cost $15.50 per person: b = 15.50xShe can spend on parking and admission tickets $100:a + b ≤ 100

a = 7b = 15.50x

7 + 15.50x ≤ 10015.50x ≤ 100 - 715.50x ≤ 93x ≤ 93 / 15.50x ≤ 6

I think this will be the answer

Ms. Date can bring 6 other people bc (7+15.50) = 22.50 then 100:15.50=0
