Question

Mr. Rojas spent d dollars to go on vacation. He bought a plane ticket for $250 and stayed in a hotel for 5 nights. If the cost of the hotel room was the same each night, what expression can be used to find how much Mr. Rojas paid each night for the hotel?

Answer 1

Answer:

x = d/5 - $50

Step-by-step explanation:

Basiclly what this sentence is saying that the price d is equal to $250 + 5 prices of staying in a hotel for a night.

If we let "x" be the price per night then we can get the following..

d = $250 + 5x

5x = d - $250

$x = \frac{d - 250}{5}$

x = d/5 - $50
