Question

You are going to an amusement park over Spring Break. The cost of admission to enter the park is $30 and the rides are an additional $6 each. If your parents give you $100 to spend at the amusement park, what is the maximum number of rides you can go on? Write an inequality to show the maximum number of rides you can go on.​

Answer 1

30+6x ≤ 100 (inequality)

The maximum amount of rides is 11 rides

Explanation:

So first the admission fee is 30

Each ride is 6

So since you can go on any amount of rides, its unknown so (x)

You only have a 100 dollars and you can’t go over but you can go lower

so 30+6x≤100

If you solve it

x≤11

So 11 rides
