Question

Tory is going to the fair with four of her friends. The entrance fee per person is $7.50. They plan to go together on all the rides. The cost of each ride is $3.00. Write an expression to represent the cost of the group to go to the fair for any number of rides.

Answer 1

$37.5+$3r

Step-by-step explanation:

We can assume that the number of rides is r. Since each ride is $3.00, all rides are $3r ($3xr).

We also know that there are FIVE people going to the fair, with Tory being one and each of her friends. Since the entrance fee is 7.50, we can do 7.50x5 which is $37.5.

Then, you can add it which is $37.5+$3r
