Answer 1

You would have to do 20.50 + 0.25r + 21.50 I think

Answer 2

Answer:

$23=0.50r+22$

Step-by-step explanation:

y=total amount of money

b=cost of admission

m=cost per ride

r= amount of rides

How to solve:

Step 1: Set up the equation in $y=mx+b$ format.

$23=22+0.50r$

Step 2: Subtract 22 from both sides of the equation.

$23-22=22+0.50r-22$

Step 3: Divide both sides by 0.50

$\frac{1}{0.50} =\frac{0.50r}{0.50}$

Step 4: You are left with your answer.

$r=2$
