It costs $48.05 to get into the team park and then, $1.50 for every ride Michael goes on. He spent a total of $87.05. Write and solve an equation to find the number of rides that Michael went on.

48.05+1.5x=87.05

Step-by-step explanation:

48.50 is the one time entry fee, and you add that to how much he spent on rides. you calculate that by taking the cost per ride and multiplying it by how many rides he went on, but since we do not know that number, we use algebra:

subtract 48.05 from each side to get this:

1.5x=39

now, you want to get the x by its self, so you divide each side by 1.5 to get this:

x=26

so, michael went on 26 rides :)

aloha~! my name is zalgo and i am here to you out on this gracious day. in order to compare the ratios easily, it is best that we simplify the question first. so, the cougars would have 6 wins for 5 losses, bobcats make 2 wins for 1 loss. bulldogs and tigers have a ratio where you can't simplify it. so, the team with the lowest rate would be the bobcats.

i hope that this ! : d

3. (5x + 1) - (-10x + 6)

simplify the answer choice. combine like terms. remember to distribute the negative to the terms inside the second parenthesis. also remember that two negatives = one positive, and one of each sign = negative.

- (-10x + 6) = + 10x - 6

simplify. combine like terms:

5x + 1 + 10x - 6

5x + 10x + 1 - 6

15x - 5

∴ it is your answer
