Andrae's money = $25
Admission cost =$4
Cost of each ride = $1.50
Number of rides = x
We have to write an inequality:
The sum of the admission cost (4) and the product of the number rides (x) and the cost per ride (1.50) must be less or equal than Andrae's money (25).
4+1.50x ≤ 25
Solve for x:
subtract 4 from both sides:
4+1.50x -4≤ 25-4
1.50x ≤ 21
Divide both sides by 1.50
1.50x/1.50 ≤ 21/1.50
x ≤ 14
Andrae can go into to 14 rides max.
