The equation that can be used to determine the number of players the team can bring to the tournament is:
$1353 - $943.50 - $31.50x = 0
Simplifying the equation:
$409 - $31.50x = 0
To solve for x, we can isolate the variable:
$31.50x = $409
Dividing both sides by $31.50:
x = $409 / $31.50
Calculating the value:
x = 12.98
Rounding to the nearest whole number, the team can bring 13 players to the tournament.
