A skier is trying to decide whether or not to buy a season ski pass. A daily pass costs $69. A season ski pass costs $300. The skier would have to rent skis with
either pass for $30 per day. How many days would the skier have to go skiing in order to make the season pass less expensive than the daily passes?
The skier would have to go skiing days.

Answer 1

Minimum of 8 days

Explanation:

Let's assume the number of days is x

Then we need to compare daily pass vs season pass:

• 300 + 30x < 69x
• 69x - 30x > 300
• 39x > 300
• x > 300/39
• x > 8 days (using whole number)

So, minimum 8 days is the answer
