Question

Jerry goes to a theme park to ride the roller coasters. The theme park charges an entry fee in addition to a fee for each roller coaster ride. The table below represents the total price for two different numbers of roller coaster rides.

Answer 1

The first roller coaster is 35 for 5 which means $7 for 1 ride
the second roller coaster is 59 for 11 which means 59 divided by 11 get 5.36
5.36 times 11 = 58.96 probrably a combo so it is estimated upward

Answer 2

Answer:

Price for entry fee is $15, and price for each ride is $4.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to tell how much it is for the entry fee and how much for each ride?

Let the price for roller coaster ride be = x

Let the price for the entry fee be = y

Looking at the table, we can form equations.

$5x+y=35$   ...(1)

$11x+y=59$    ....(2)

Now we will solve these. Subtracting equation 1 from equation 2.

$6x=24$

x = 4

Substituting value of x in equation 1

$5(4)+y=35$

$20+y=35$

$y=35-20=15$

Hence, y = 15

So, entry fee is $15

And price of per ride is $4
