Answer: 12 + 2.50r

Explanation: 12 dollars is the FLAT fee to get in.

$2.50 per ride and 'r' represents per ride, so the cost would be $12 automatically and $2.50 per ride you went on. :)

The expression that represents Fiona's scenario, where "r" represents the number of rides she takes, would be:

Total cost = $12.00 + ($2.50 × r)

This expression takes into account the $12.00 entry fee and adds the cost of each ride, which is $2.50 multiplied by the number of rides "r"..
