b.How much money do you
have left if you ride each

Answer 1

Giant Slide: 1.75 - 50 = 1.25

Ferris Wheel: 1.25+1.50 = 2.75

Roller Coaster: 2.75 + 1.25 = 4.00

15 - 9.75 for the amount of money left after riding each once

Explanation:

Okay, there is an order here. Bumper cars are 1.75. Now which one mentions bumper cars again?

Giant Slide: $0.50 less than Bumper Cars so The giant slide is 1.75-50 = 1.25. Now which mentions the giant slide again?

Ferris Wheel: $1.50 more than Giant Slide. so 1.25+1.50 = 2.75. Then the last one mentions the ferris wheel again.

Roller Coaster: $1.25 more than Ferris Wheel. This means 2.75 + 1.25 = 4.00

So now we have the price of all 4. let's add them up.

1.75 + 1.25 + 2.75 + 4.00 = $9.75

Starting with 15 subtract 9.75 to find how much is left.
