one ticket for each ride. Write an equation Juan can use to determine the number of ride
tickets, r, he can buy if he has $32 before he pays the admission fee. Write an equation
on buy

Answer 1

Juan can buy 6 ride tickets.

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine the number of ride tickets, r, Juan can buy if he has $32 before he pays the admission fee, we can set up the equation:

8 + 4r = 32

Where 8 represents the admission fee and 4r represents the cost of the ride tickets. To solve for r, we can subtract 8 from both sides of the equation:

4r = 24

Then, we can divide both sides by 4:

r = 6

Therefore, Juan can buy 6 ride tickets.
