a)
total expense = 3000 (3/2) = $4500

b)
let E = k + hN where k and h are constants
2400 = ( k + 15h)(2/3) ------(i)
3000 = (k + 20h) (2/3) ------(ii)
solve (i) and (ii) gives h=180 and k = 900
so , E = 900 + 180N

c)
total expense = 900 + 180(30) = $6300
each member should pay 6300(1/3) (1/30) = $70

d)
If each members pays＄72
72N(3) = 900 + 180N
N = 25
25 team members are there
