A fair charges 7.25 for admission and 5.50 for a ride pass. Ten friends visited the fair. Not all of the friends purchased ride passes. If their. Total cost was 105.50, how many friends purchased ride passes?

Respuesta :

7.25(10) + 5.50p = 105.50
72.50 + 5.50p = 105.50
5.50p = 105.50 - 72.50
5.50p = 33
p = 33 / 5.50
p = 6 <=== there were 6 ride passes purchased
