1. The county fair charges $1.25 per ticket for the rides. Jermaine bought 25 tickets for the rides and spent a total of $43.75 at the fair. Jermaine spent his money ONLY on ride tickets and fair admission. The price of the
fair admission is the SAME for everyone. Use y to represent the total cost and x to represent the number of
ride tickets.

a) using the information provided for jermaine, what is the price of the fair admission? show all steps.

b) using the x and y as defined in the problem, write a linear equation that can be used to determine the cost for anyone who only pays for ride tickets and fair admission.

step 1. identify the slope and y-intercept for the equation.
step 2. write the equation in slope-intercept form.
