Ms. Hernandez has $100 to spend on parking and admission to the zoo. The parking will cost $7, and admission tickets will cost %15.50 per person, including tax. Write and solve an equation that can be used to determine the number of people that she can bring to the zoo, including herself.

she can bring 6 people to the zoo, including herself.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let (x + 1) represent the number of people that she can bring to the zoo, including herself.

The parking will cost $7, and admission tickets will cost $15.50 per person, including tax. This means that the total cost of bringing x people including herself to the party would be

7 + 15.5(x + 1)

Ms. Hernandez has $100 to spend on parking and admission to the zoo. This means that

7 + 15.5(x + 1) = 100

7 + 15.5x + 15.5 = 100

15.5x + 22.5 = 100

15.5x = 100 - 22.5 = 77.5

x = 77.5/15.5

x = 5

x + 1 = 5 + 1 = 6
