Answer:
- Given and explained below.
Step-by-step explanation:
- Here y represents money left, x represents numbers of rides.
solve:
1.
y = 44 - 5 - 3x
y = 39 - 3x
2.
y = 39 - 3x
y = 39 - 3(5)
y = 39 - 15
y = 24
3.
y = 39 - 3x
0 = 39 - 3x
-39 = -3x
x = 13
He can total ride 13 rides before he runs out of money.
