Question 1135948: The admission to a local fair is $10 for each adult and $6 for each child. Each ride costs $1.50 for an adult and $1 for a child. Write an expression that represents how much more an adult will spend at the fair. An adult and a child each go on 7 rides. How much more did the adult spend?

Adult=10+1.5*7=$20.50
Child=6+1*7=$13
The expression is the difference or D=$4+0.50*x, where x is the number of rides.
$7.50 more for an adult when x=7.
