Question

A skier is trying to decide whether or not to buy a season ski pass. A daily pass costs ​$70. A season ski pass costs ​$300. The skier would have to rent skis with either pass for ​$20 per day. How many days would the skier have to go skiing in order to make the season pass less expensive than the daily​ passes?

Answer 1

The number of days when the season pass would be less expensive than the daily pass is 5 days.

How many days would the season pass be less expensive?

The equation that represents the total cost of skiing with the daily pass : (daily pass x number of days) + (cost of renting skis x number of days)

$70d + $20d = $90d

The equation that represents the total cost of skiing with the seasonal pass : cost of season pass + (cost of renting skis x number of days)

$300 + $20d

When the season pass becomes less expensive, the inequality equation is:

Daily pass > season pass

$90d > $300 + $20d

In order to determine the value of d, take the following steps:

Combine and add similar terms: $90d - $20d > $300

70d > $300

Divide both sides by 70 d > $300 / 70

d > 4.3 days

Approximately 5 days.
