Then spends five more dollars on the photo booth with Jakob, only Mariah spends her money on the photo booth. How much does the other ride cost for Jakob. How much money does Mariah spend on the photo booth?

Answer 1

The cost of the other ride Jacob took = $22

The amount Mariah spends on the photo boot with Jacob = $5

Explanation:

The given information are;

Whereby the question states that amount Mariah and Jacob each have to spend = $35

The amount Jacob spends on the first ride = $13

The amount Mariah spends on the 3 cup cakes = $10

The amount Mariah spends on the photo boot with Jacob = $5

Let the cost of the other ride Jacob took = R

Given that Jakob spent all his available money at the fair, we have;

35 = 13 + R

R = 35 - 13

R = $22

Therefore, the cost of the other ride Jacob took = R = $22

The amount Mariah spends on the photo boot with Jacob = $5.
