Question

Raymond just got done jumping at Super Bounce Trampoline Center. The total cost of his session was \$43.25$43.25dollar sign, 43, point, 25. He had to pay a \$7$7dollar sign, 7 entrance fee and \$1.25$1.25dollar sign, 1, point, 25 for every minute he was on the trampoline. Write an equation to determine the number of minutes (to)(, t, )that Raymond was on the trampoline. Find the number of minutes he was on the trampoline.

Answer 1

Answer:

Raymond was for 29 minutes on the trampoline.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Total cost of session = $43.25

Entrance fee = $7

Cost per minute = $1.25

Let t be the minutes that Raymond was on the trampoline.

Thus, we can write

Total cost =

Entrance fee + cost per mute(minutes that Raymond was on trampoline)

$C(t) = 7 + 1.25t$

Putting the values, we get,

$43.25 = 7 + 1.25(t)\\1.25t = 43.25 - 7\\1.25t = 36.25\\\\t = \dfrac{36.25}{1.25}\\\\t = 29$

Thus, Raymond was for 29 minutes on the trampoline.

Answer 2

Answer:

29 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

7 + 1.25t = 43.25 is the equation

In total it is 29 minutes
