Write the expression that would represent how much each person should pay if they go on x number of rides.
The information given is ambiguous.
If they go on x rides EACH then
entry=5a
rides=5x
total = 5a+5xr = 5(a+xr)
individual cost = a+xr
If they go on x rides IN TOTAL then
entry =5a
rides=rx
total = 5a+xr
individual cost \(\frac{5a+rx}{5}
