Abusiness has $15,000 to spend on airline tickets to travel to a conference. it wants 27 of its employees to attend. the business wants to buy as many business-class seats as possible. the business-class seats cost $700. the economy-class seats cost $375. create a system of equations that models how many of each type of ticket the business should purchase.

a. 700x + 375y = 27
x + y = 15,000

b. x + 375y = 15,000
700x + y = 27

c. 700x + y = 15,000
x + 375y = 27

d. 700x + 375y = 15,000
x + y = 27

The correct answer is :

D. 700x + 375y = 15,000

x + y = 27

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's review the information given to answer the question correctly:

Budget for airline tickets = US$ 15,000

Number of employees attending the conference = 27

Price of business-class ticket = US$ 700

Price of economy-class ticket = US$ 375

2. Let's create a system of equations that models how many of each type of ticket the business should purchase.

x = Number of employees flying business-class

y = Number of employees flying economy-class

x + y = 27 (Number of employees attending the conference)

700x + 375y = 15,000 (Cost of employees flying business plus cost of employees flying economy equal to budget for buying the airline tickets)

d

Step-by-step explanation:

the answer is 510

step-by-step explanation:

15 • 13 = 195

15 • 12 = 180

15 • 5 = 75

12 • 5 = 60

195 + 180 = 375

375 + 75 = 450

450 + 60 = 510
