How much are ride tickets at the del mar fair

Asked by admin @ in Mathematics viewed by 262 People

Jim and his friends are going to the Del Mar Fair and find they have two ticket options. In one option each person could buy an admission ticket for $5 and then pay $0.25 for each ride. The other option is to buy an admission ticket for $2 and then pay $0.75 a ride. What do you think Jim should do?

Answered by admin @


Step-by-step explanation:

let the cost of the options be y

since they are two already we can model the cost as

For the first ticket option

y=5+0.25(2)

y=5+0.5

y=$5.5

For the second ticket option

y=2+0.75(2)

y=2+1.5

y=$3.5

They should go for the second ticket option since it is $2 less than the first option
