Answer 2

p = (967.50 - 450)/28.75

The number of players is 18.

Explanation:

Given: Total amount raised = $967.50

Rent for bus = $450

$28.75 meal per each player

The amount left = 0

Let's take p be the number of players

967.50 = 450 + $28.75 p

p = (967.50 - 450)/28.75

p = 517.50/28.75

p = 18

The number of players is 18.

Hope this will helpful.

Thank you.
