Explanation of Solution
Given information: Admission to the fair costs $7.75. Each ride costs $.50. We have $15 to spend at the fair including admission.
Calculation:
Let r be the number of rides that we van ride.
Cost of each ride=$0.50
Therefore, cost of r rides=$ 0. 50r
Admission to the fair costs $7.75.
Therefore, total money spend at the fair =$ (0. 50r+ 7.75)
But, $15 is to be spent at the fair including admission. Therefore,
That is , maximum number of rides must be 14.
Therefore, the inequality that represents the possible number of rides is
