Question

Jordyn went to the fair and paid $5 for admission (entrance fee). Additionally, she paid $2 for every ride she went on. How much money did Jordyn spend at the fair if she paid for admission and to go on 6 rides? *

Answer 1

Jordyn spent $17 at the fair.

Explanation:

From the information given, you know that the amount spent at the fair would be equal to the entrance fee plus the result of multiplying the price for every ride for the number of rides, which could be express as:

Total amount=5+2x, where:

x is the number of rides

With this formula, you can find the amount that Jordyn spent at the fair if she paid for admission and to go on 6 rides by replacing x with 6:

Total amount=5+(2*6)

Total amount=5+12

Total amount=17

According to this, the answer is that Jordyn spent $17 at the fair.
