    The answer is Ms Hernandez can bring up to 6 people to the zoo.

    x - the number of people that she can bring to the zoo

    The parking will cost $7: a = 7

    Admission tickets will cost $15.50 per person: b = 15.50x

    She can spend on parking and admission tickets $100:

    a + b ≤ 100

    a = 7

    b = 15.50x

    7 + 15.50x ≤ 100

    15.50x ≤ 100 - 7

    15.50x ≤ 93

    x ≤ 93 / 15.50

    x ≤ 6
