Sydney is going to a carnival that has games and rides. Each game costs $1.25 and each ride costs $2.25. Sydney spent $24.25 altogether at the carnival and the number
of rides she went on is 3 more than the number of games she played. Determine the
pumber of games Sydney played and the number of rides Sydney went on.
Sydney played
games and went on
rides rides.

Sidney played 5 games and rode 8 rides.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Sydney is going to a carnival that has games and rides, and each game costs $ 1.25 and each ride costs $ 2.25. Sydney spent $ 24.25 altogether at the carnival and the number of rides she went on is 3 more than the number of games she played, to determine the number of games Sydney played and the number of rides Sydney went on the following calculation must be performed:

5 x 2.25 + 2 x 1.25 = 11.25 + 2.50 = 13.75

6 x 2.25 + 3 x 1.25 = 13.50 + 3.75 = 17.25

7 x 2.25 + 4 x 1.25 = 15.75 + 5 = 20.75

8 x 2.25 + 5 x 1.25 = 18 + 6.25 = 24.25

Therefore, Sidney played 5 games and rode 8 rides.

use an equation of ratios to determine the amount of gas needed to fill the tank.

    0.2             0.8

  =    

288.75             x

                                                              231 gal

so, 0.2x = (0.8)(288.75 gal), and x = = 1155 gal.

                                                                0.2

it would take 1155 gal. to fill the tank.

the cost would be

1155 gal         $3

* = $3465   (answer)

      1           1 gal

hope this you

you never say the total so we cant find the percentage used for petrol
