Question 435180: You are planning a surprise party for your mother's birthday. You have coompleted a budget and cannot exceed $1500. Party Rentals will cater the party for a setup fee of $75 and will charge $15 per person. Party Central charges an $85 setup fee and will charge $14 per person. If everything else is the same, which company will allow you more guest for your budget?

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Let x be the number of guests you can have:
(1500-75)-15x<>(1500-85)-14x
1425-15x<>1415-14x
95<>101.07
You can have more people with Party Central than you can with Party Rentals.
