Question

A skier is trying to decide whether or not to buy a season ski pass. A daily pass costs ​$64. A season ski pass costs ​$300. The skier would have to rent skis with either pass for ​$25 per day. How many days would the skier have to go skiing in order to make the season pass less expensive than the daily​ passes?

The skier would have to go skiing how many days

Answer 1

3 days

Explanation:

(64+(25*3))*3 = 417

300+(25*3) = 375

Here, the season pass is less expensive than the daily pass

You cannot go lower than this because

(64+(25*2))*2 = 228

300+(25*2) = 350

Which means the season pass is more expensive than the daily pass.
