The student council has a budget of $100 to spend on the balloons for the holiday dance. They order from a company that charges $2 per ballon, plus a $12 delivery fee per order.

Answer:

44 Balloons        

Step-by-step explanation:

We are expected to solve for the total number of balloons they can get with $100

given that the expression for the total cost of balloons is given as

2b+12<100

We can proceed to solve for the total number of balloons they can buy, by solving for b we have

2b+12=100

2b=100-12

2b=88

divide both sides by 2 we have

2b/2=88/2

b= 44

Therefore they would get a total of 44 balloons
