A skier is trying to decide whether or not to buy a season ski pass. A daily pass costs ​$6060. A season ski pass costs ​$450450. The skier would have to rent skis with either pass for ​$2020 per day. How many days would the skier have to go skiing in order to make the season pass less expensive than the daily​ passes?

Respuesta :

First, your equation would look like 450,450 + 2,020x < 6,060x + 2,020x.

6,060x + 2,020x = 8,080x, so the final equation is 450,450 + 2,020x < 8,080x.

Subtract, and you get 450,450 < 6,060x. Divide, and you get x = 74.33.

Since you can't have 74.33 days, your answer is 75 days.
