Step-by-step explanation:

As given

Mrs. Howard is hosting a catered dinner party to celebrate her daughter's graduation.

The catering company she plans to use charges $13.50 per plate of food and an additional fee of $540 to cover linens and tableware.

The total bill for the catering services is $1,512.

Total number of guests, g .

Than the equation becomes

1512 = 540 + 13.50 g

1512 - 540 = 13.50 g

972 = 13.50 g

g = 72

Therefore the equation can be used to determine the total number of guests is 13.50g + 540 = 1512  and the total number of guest are 72 .
