Question

Grace bought a season pass to galactic quest amusement park last summer. With the pass, she got 4 visits to the park at a discounted rate. She paid an additional $25 to upgrade her pass to have access to the arcade area. Grace spent a total or $261

Which equation can grace use to find x, the discounted rate for each park visit? ​

Answer 1

Answer: 59$

Explanation:

Let the discounted rate be ‘x’
No. of visits = 4
Total Amount for the visits = 4 * x = 4x
Additional cost = 25$
Total Amount = 261$

Therefore,
= 4x + 25 = 261
= 4x = 261 - 25 = 236
=> x = 236/4 = 59

Therefore, x = 59
Hence, discounted rate = 59$
