Question

The volleyball team is having a pancake breakfast to raise money. The room can hold no more than 120 people. There are 22 coaches and players who will be attending. The inequality n + 22 ≤ 120 can be used to find the maximum number of people the volleyball team can invite to its fundraiser. What is the maximum number of people who can be invited by the team?

Answer 1

Answer: 98

Explanation:

Given: The volleyball team is having a pancake breakfast to raise money. The room can hold no more than 120 people. There are 22 coaches and players who will be attending.

The inequality
`n+22\leq120` can be used to find the maximum number of people the volleyball team can invite to its fundraiser.

To find the maximum number of people who can be invited by the team 'n', subtract 22 on both sides, we get

`n+22-22\leq120-22\\\\\Rightarrow n\leq98`

Hence, the maximum number of people who can be invited by the team is 98.
