Cameron is going to the state fair. the price of admission to the fair is $4, and each ride costs an additional $1. if he can spend at most $20 at the fair, which inequality gives the maximum number of rides, r, for cameron?

To find the answer, we need to first find the amount he can spend on the rides, by deducting the admission price from the total amount he has got:

20-4

=$16

As he has $16 and each ride cost $1, the maximum rides he can take is:

16÷1

=1

To represent that the maximum rides is 16, we can use the less than or equal to, and therefore the answer is:

r ≤ 16

Hope it helps!

So, We start by charging 4 dollars, then 1 dollar per ride.

Let's call r our number of rides.

So

Cameron can ride 16 rides at most
