A school goes on a field trip to the zoo. They bring 67 people. Each ticket to the zoo costs $23. ABOUT how much did the school pay
to go to the zoo?

since u said about i assume we round

67 to 70 ppl

23$ to 20$

70x20

1400 they payed around 1400$

accurate answer

67x23

1541$ they payed 1541$ exactly

b=-0.38,p=1.62, however, your problem seems broken.

Step-by-step explanation:

1b+2p=2.86

1b+1p=1.24

The only difference between these equations is 1p, and that is equal to 1.62. However, That means that 1b must be negative, which is not possible in the context of the problem. However, I will continue to solve it anyways. b must be equal to -0.38.

However, your problem seems kind of broken.
