\n" ); document.write( "x = number of days
\n" ); document.write( "y = total cost\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Option 1: Paying $3 per day
\n" ); document.write( "y = 3x\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Option 2: Buy a season pass
\n" ); document.write( "y = 84
\n" ); document.write( "The variable x plays no role here since the cost is fixed or flat.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Equate the right hand sides and solve.
\n" ); document.write( "3x = 84
\n" ); document.write( "x = 84/3
\n" ); document.write( "x = 28\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Answer: On day 28 is when the two payment options cost the same ($84)
\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
