Question

Shaquana has a points card for a movie theater.

She receives 40 rewards points just for signing up.
• She earns 13.5 points for each visit to the movie theater.
• She needs 175 points for a free movie ticket.
How many visits must Shaquana make to earn a free movie ticket?

Answer 1

This is an algebraic function
She earns 40 points for signing up which is her constant
40+13.5x=175
175-40=135
135 divided by 13.5= 10
10 movie tickets is the final answer
