To do this you want to divide 110 by 5 to get 22. Now you want to multiply 3 by 22. That means the caterer need 66 pounds of tomatoes.
We want to create a linear equation to model the given situation.
A) c(r) = $6.00 + $1.50*r
B) 19 rides.
We know that the carnival charges $6.00 for entry plus $1.50 for each ride.
A) With the given information we can see that if you ride for r rides, then the cost equation will be:
c(r) = $6.00 + $1.50*r
Where c(r) is the cost for going to the carnival and doing r rides.
B) If you have $35.00, then we can solve:
c(r) = $35.00 = $6.00 + $1.50*r
Now we can solve the equation for r.
$35.00 = $6.00 + $1.50*r
$35.00 - $6.00 = $1.50*r
$29.00 = $1.50*r
$29.00/$1.50 = r = 19.33
Rounding to the next whole number we get: r = 19
This means that with $35.00, Dennis could go to 19 rides.
