Question

A subway ride for a student costs $1.25. A monthly pass costs $35. Write an inequality that represents the number of times, x, you must ride the subway for the monthly pass to be a better deal.

Answer 1

since there are 30 days in almost every month,

1.25 x 30= 37.5

compared to 35$ a month this cannot be considered as a cheaper option as 37.5$ is 2.5$ more than 35$
