A skier is trying to decide wether or not to buy a season ski pass. A daily pass costs $61. A season ski pass costs $450. The skier would have to rent skis with either pass for $20 per day. How many days would the skier have to go skiing in order to make the season pass less expensive than the daily pass?

Answer:

8 days

Explanation:

61x=450

divide each side by 61

then x=7.3 but because of the context you have to round up to 8

also the 20 is just there and can be included in solving but they cancel out so i left it out
