No -5 is not a solution. The correct answer would be 5.

6x+5 = 5x+2x
6x+5 = 7x
-6x - 6x

You and a friend are heading to Frankie's Fun Park (Columbia, SC). You have $100 for the day, and plan to spend your time riding

Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

$8r + 6s = 100$ --- (a)

$s = -2$ ---- (b)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Per ride (r) = $8

Per baseballs (s) = $6

Total = $100

Required

Represent using an equation

If 1 ride is $8.

r rides would be 8r

If 1 baseball is $6

s baseballs would be 6r.

So, total is:

$8r + 6s = 100$

Solving (b):

Value of s when r = 14

$8r + 6s = 100$

Substitute 14 for r

$8 * 14 + 6s = 100$

$112+ 6s = 100$

Solve for 6s

$6s = 100 - 112$

$6s = -12$

Solve for s

$s = -12/6$

$s = -2$

Answer is $155 for the job

You can use y intercept formula for this one.

Y = mx + b
Y = Dollars earned, what you are looking for.
M= rate per hour (27)
X = hours worked (5)
B = flat rate (20)

y = (27) (5) + 20

y = $155
