The total cost if x passengers booked reclining seats and one fifths y passengers booked twin-sharing rooms is (197x + 98y) dollars
Solution:
Given that,
Cost for reclining seat = $ 197
Cost for twin sharing room = $ 490
We have to find the cost if x passengers booked reclining seats and one fifths y passengers booked twin-sharing rooms
Cost for reclining room when "x" passengers booked is:
Cost for reclining room = $ 197x
Cost when One fifths y passengers booked twin-sharing rooms
Cost for twin sharing room = [tex]\frac{1}{5} \times y \times 490[/tex]
Cost for twin sharing room = 98y
Total cost is given as:
Total cost = Cost for reclining room "x" passengers + Cost for twin sharing room for one fifths y passengers
[tex]Total\ cost = 197x + 98y[/tex]
Thus total cost is (197x + 98y) dollars
