For Dexter ONLY write an equation you would use to find the cost ofthe weekly passes and the daily passes. Hint: You will be writing ONE equation. Use "w" for weekly and"d" for daily. Do not put any dollar signs in the equation.

Answer 1

Let the cost of weekly passes be "w".

Let the cost of daily passes be "d".

Dexters cost equation is therefore;

`7d+2w=36.5`

Thus, the equation for Dexter's fare would be 7d + 2w = 36.5
