Answer 9

I don't understand what the difference between a combo pass and a subway pass is except that a subway card is cheaper so why would anyone buy a combo pass if it just costs more for the same amount of rides

Answer 10

Answer 11

This means that the one requires to use the subway and bus in order to get to destination.

Combo pass allows the person to use the subway and the bust with just one card at $46.
Where as if the person bought transit and bus ticket separately, they will cost $27 and $20 respectively.

While it is true that the combo is cheaper at the end of the 20th day, it doesn't necessarily mean that both equations will not intersect at some point.

Answer 12

So she rides the subway once and the bus once? With the combo pass, it's $46 total and 1 subway ride + 1 bus ride = $47 total...still not getting what the difference is
