Admission cost to the fiar = $12.99.

Each ride cost = $1.75.

Let us assume number of rides = x.

a) Addimission charges + each ride cost *x <= Total money have.

We are given total money have = $35.

We can setup an inequality now

12.99 + 1.75*x <=35.

12.99 +1.75x <=35  is the required inequality.

b) Let us solve this inequality for x.

12.99 +1.75x <=35

Subtracting both sides by 12.99, we get

12.99-12.99 +1.75x <=35-12.99

1.75x <= 22.01.

Dviding both sides by 1.75

1.75x/1.75 <= 22.01/1.75

x< = 12.5771..

We got value of x less than or equal to 12.5771.... Number of rides could be a whole number.

Therefore, 12 are the maximum number of rides you can enjoy at the hot summer fair.

The Cunninghams are moving across the country. Mr. Cunningham leaves 3 hours before Mrs. Cunningham. If he averages 40mph and sh
svp [43]
Recall your d = rt, distance = rate * time

now, if say, by the time they meet, Mr Cunningham has travelled "d" miles, that means Mrs Cunningham must also had travelled "d" miles as well.

However, he left 3 hours earlier, so by the time he travelled "d" miles, and took say "t" hours, for her it took 3 hour less, because she started driving 3 hours later, so, she's been on the road 3 hours less than Mr Cunningham, so by the time they meet, Mrs Cunningham has travelled then "t - 3" hours.

\bf \begin{array}{lccclll}&#10;&\stackrel{miles}{distance}&\stackrel{mph}{rate}&\stackrel{hours}{time}\\&#10;&------&------&------\\&#10;\textit{Mr Cunningham}&d&40&t\\&#10;\textit{Mrs Cunningham}&d&80&t-3&#10;\end{array}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\begin{cases}&#10;\boxed{d}=40t\\&#10;d=80(t-3)\\&#10;----------\\&#10;\boxed{40t}=80(t-3)&#10;\end{cases}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\cfrac{40t}{80}=t-3\implies \cfrac{t}{2}=t-3\implies t=2t-6\implies 6=2t-t&#10;\\\\\\&#10;6=t
