Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Bus fare = $2.00
coupon book = 28.00
bus fare w/ coupon book = $1.00
let x be the number of bus rides.
2.00x = 1.00x + 28.00
2.00x - 1.00x = 28.00
1x = 28.00
x = 28.00
24 bus rides for both to have the same cost.
2.00x = 1.00x + 28
2.00(28) = 1.00(28) + 28
56 = 28 + 28
56 = 56
