The LaSalle High School senior class raised funds for an end of the year cruise getaway. The city gave them a special package for the port fees and taxes - a flat fee of $1,500 for the entire class's port fees and taxes. It costs $367 per student to board the cruise. If your class raised $16,600, how many students can attend?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation: the equation is going to be 1500+367x=16600. The x represents the number of students, you send the 1500 to the other side and when u cross the bridge which is the = sign you always change the sign, you subtract 1500 from 16600 and you get 14500 and divided by 367 and you get x=39.509 so if you round that up you will get 39. So 39 students attended to the cruise.

The number of students that can attend the cruise getaway given the amount raised is 41 students.

How many students can attend the cruise?

The total cost of the cruise is the sum of the flat fee and the variable fee which increases with the number of students.

Number of students = (amount raised - falte fee) / cost per student

(16600 - 1500) / 367 = 41 students
