An event planner is planning a party. It costs the event planner a onetime fee of $35 to rent the venue and $10.25 per attendee. The event planner has a budget of $200. What is the greatest number of attendees possible without exceeding the budget?
Correct answer: C. 13
- A. 0.07
- B. 15
- C. 13
- D. 27
Explanation
Choice C is correct. Let x be the 2015 population of Greenville. It's given that the population increased by 7% from 2015 to 2016. The increase in population can be written as 0.07 (x) . The 2016 population of Greenville is given as the sum of the 2015 population of Greenville and the increase in population from 2015 to 2016. This can be rewritten as x + 0.07(x), or 1.07(x). Therefore, the value of k is 1.07.
