Question

The youth group is going on a trip to the state fair. The trip costs $64. Included in that price is $12 for a concert ticket and the cost of 2 passes, one for the rides and one for the game booths. Each of the passes costs the same price. Write an equation representing the cost of the trip, and determine the price of one pass. Solve your equation by showing your work and steps.

Answer 1

@Vocaloid

Answer 2

total price = concert ticket + 2*(cost of pass)

find the cost of the pass

Answer 3

12 + 2 * ( 2 ) ?

Answer 4

nope, think carefully

total price = 64
concert ticket = 12

total price = concert ticket + 2*(cost of pass)
now finish the equation

Answer 5

64 = 12+2*

Answer 6

64 = 12 + 2 * ( 2 )

Answer 7

@Vocaloid

Answer 8

also, we can use a variable to represent the cost of the pass, so

64 = 12 + 2x

solve for x

Answer 9

x would equal 26 correct?

Answer 10

because you have to subtract 12 from 64 which would equals 52 and 26 x 2 equals 52
so x=26

Answer 11

i got x=26 @Vocaloid

Answer 12

I think that is correct

Answer 13

yes, good

Answer 14

so complete answer?

Answer 15

:D

Answer 16

geny, read what the question is asking, then read over what we did

Answer 17

64=12+(2x26)
that should be right

Answer 18

whats the equation? @Vocaloid

Answer 19

64 = 12 + 2(26)

Answer 20

read what I wrote

64 = 12 + 2x...

Answer 21

the equation is : 64 = 12 + 2x

Answer 22
