Lily Novak · Answer 1

Answer: 4 (415) + 155x = 2800

x = 7 nights

Amaya Stokes · Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

the budget is 2800. so 4 tickets would cost 1660.

motel would cost 155. per night so add 1660+155'=1815

so subtract 2800.-1815=985

Then divide 985/155=6.35

So they could stay 7 days because they already had one day, then they had enough left for 6 days so 1+6=7
