Question

Henry goes to the town fair.Use the prices on the photograph to complete the table.Enter the correct answer in the box.

Answer 1

$28

Step-by-step explanation

We have that the entry fee is $10 and for each ride, $6 must be paid.

We want to complete the table by finding the cost of 3 rides.

First, let us represent the cost of going to the fair and taking the ride.

Let the number of rides a person takes by x.

We have that the cost of taking x rides will be the entry fee plus the cost of each ride taken:

Cost = 10 + 6x

So, for taking 3 rides, it will cost:

Cost = 10 + 6(3)

Cost = 10 + 18

Cost = $28

That is the cost of taking 3 rides.
