Answer:

We can participate in 10 triathlons.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total cost C to participate in x number of triathlon is given by the expression

C = 90x + 35

If the maximum cost of the annual triathlon is = $1000

Then we can find the maximum number of triathlons by putting C = $1000 in the expression

1000 = 90x + 35

90x = 1000 - 35

90x = 965

x = [tex]\frac{965}{90}[/tex]

x = 10.72

Therefore, we can participate in 10 triathlons.
