Answer:
The prices will match up at 3 snowboard rental trips. The cost is $25.
Step-by-step explanation:
First, I wrote out the two equations:
Cold Boarders: 5x + 10
Ice Riders: 4x + 13
Next, I kept trying numbers for x until I found one that worked. The two companies prices match up at 3 snowboard rental trips. The cost will be $25. Hope this helped!
Ratios can be treated like fractions...so 2 to 6 can be written as 2/6....this reduces to 1/3.....so another ratio is 1 to 3
I don't know if you know something called PEMDAS
Parentheses
Exponent
Multiply
Divide
Add
Subtract
So you would do the -2(-7) first giving you 14
So now we have -62/12 +14
now you would do -62/12 giving you -5.16666667
and now the equation is -5.16666667 + 14 = 8.83333333
I know for a fact, being in Calculus Honors, that what I did to simplify is correct. Using the Order of Operations, or PEMDAS (Commonly remebered as "Please Excuse My Dear Aunt Sally<span>". It stands for "Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication and Division, and Addition and Subtraction".) to simplify this answer is necessary.
If your teacher wrote this problem please inform him or her of Order of Operations before your classmates use it even though its wrong.</span>
