Question 1010858: At the fair you spend $90 on games which cost you $1.50 and rides are $3.75. Write the equation that can be used to model your night at the fair.
I tried to use the y=mx+b equation where I plugged in 90=1.50+3.75

Well if you let the numbers of games and rides be g and r, you can write an equation that looks like this:
(1.50)g + (3.75)r = 90
