Ashley has a total of $35 to spend at the carnival this year. She wants to purchase a turkey leg for $12, also. If each ride costs $0.50, how many rides can Ashley get on? IDENTIFY THE CONSTANT.

46 rides; the constant is the $12 turkey leg

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, you can write an equation:

c = .5r + 12

where c is cost and r is rides (the constant is 12 because it doesn't change)

You already know that the cost is 35, so you just need to plug it in and solve:

c = .5r + 12; c = 35

35 = .5r + 12

23 = .5r

r = 46

So, on $35 and an expense of $12, Ashley can ride 46 rides.

step-by-step explanation:

their are no angles. sorry cant .

step-by-step explanation:

12: 00 p.m. to 7: 00 p.m. is a total of 7 hours.

4: 00 p.m. to 7: 00 p.m. is a total of 3 hours.

this means that from 4: 00 p.m to 7: 00 p.m. this represents 3/7 of what was lost from 12: 00 p.m. to 7: 00 p.m.

after knowing this, after doing 11,600 - 6,800 = 4,800

4,800 represents 3/7 of what was lost for 7 hours.

we then divide 4,800 by 3 which gets 1,600.

because we know that 1,600 represents 1/7 of how much water was lost, we just have to multiply by 7, which gets 11,200.   after adding 11,200 to how much water was left at 7: 00 p.m. which was 6,800. 11,200 + 6,800 = 18,000

this means that the pool originally had 18,000 gallons in the pool.

you can also check your work by doing 18,000 - 4(1600), which becomes           1800 - 6400 which gets you 11,600.
