Answer:

15 rides

Explanation:

From the above Question we know that if Tanya goes on a ride, the Algebraic expression = 2x

Where x = number of rides

If Tanya does not play any games, how many rides can she go on?

Note that: Tanya has $30 to spend

This question is solved:

2x = $30

x = $30/2

x = 15 rides

Hence, if Tanya does not play any games she can go on 15 rides
