Question

Koran is spending $12 on games and rides at another carnival, where a game costs $0.25 and a ride costs $1.

Write an equation to represent the relationship between the dollar amount Koran is spending and the number of games, x, and the number of rides, y, he could do.

Answer 1

Answer:

$0.25x+y=12$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

y ----> the number of rides

x ---> the number of games

we know that

The number of rides multiplied by  $1 plus the number of games multiplied by $0.25 must be equal to $12 (the dollar amount Koran is spending)

so

The equation that represent this situation is

$0.25x+y=12$
