Question

You ride an express bus from the center of town to your street. You have two payment options. Option A is to buy a monthly pass for $30 and pay $0.80 per ride. Option B is to pay $2.30 per ride. After how many rides will the total costs of the two options be the same?

Answer 1

The answer is 20 rides

If have 30 plus 0.80 and multiple that by 20 you will get 46 (that’s for option A). Then multiple 2.30 by 20 you will get 46 (Option B) . This shows that 20 rides will be the same price for both options
