She paid $5 for admission
Rides cost $3 each. (Let x be the number of rides)
3x (three dollars for every ride x)
Add this to the original inequality.
Since we are asked to find the number of rides she can ride, solve for x:
Start by subtracting 5.
Combine like terms;
Divide by 3.
Divide.
14/3=4.6

Amanda has $40 to spend. Again, this means she can spend a maximum of 40. So, anything (x) has to be less than or equal to 40 ()
She wants to buy a pair of flowers for $1
The rest of the money will be spent on lily flowers. Each lily flower costs $11. Again, multiply 11 by the number of lily flowers, which we don't know so we'll call it x (11x)
Add it to the inequality
Solve for x; begin by subtracting 1
Combine like terms;
Divide by 11
