Every ride at the country fair costs the same amount. The cost of one ride is $2.25. The fair entry fee is $6.50. Lupe paid the entrance fee and rode 7 rides. How much did Lupe pay in all?

Answer 1

Answer:

$22.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

given data

we are told that the cost of  one ride is $2.25

the entry fee= $6.5

the linear function for the situation is represented by the equation of line

y=mx+c

Step two:

let x be the number of ride

given that x=7

substituting we have

y=2.25(7)+6.5

y=15.75+6.5

y=22.25

In all Lupe we have to pay $22.25
