Question

Admission to the carnival is $10 plus $2 per ride. John spent $38 on admission and

rides. Write and solve an equation to find how many rides John went on.

Answer 1

He went on 14 rides.

Answer 2

he went on 14 rides.

Explanation:

take your total, 38, subtract that by 10 (because you have to pay the admission fee) and you have 28 dollars spent on rides. each ride costs 2 dollars so divide 28 by 2 and you get 14.
