Question 1016035: An amusement park charges admission plus a fee for each ride.Admission plus two rides cost $10.Admission plus five rides coat $16.What is the change for admission and the cost for a ride? Answer by fractalier(6550) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Call the charges for admission and rides, a and r. Then we have
a + 2r = 10
a + 5r = 16 Now subtract these and get
--------------
-3r = 6
r = $2
a = $6
