Answer:

4 rides

Step-by-step explanation:

Total amount = $21.50

Entry charge = $20.50

Amount left = $21.50 - 20.50 = $1

Number of rides

[tex]r = \frac{1}{0.25} = \frac{100}{25} = 4 \\ [/tex]

Another way:

[tex] 0.25\:r + 20.50 = 21.50\\

0.25\:r = 21.50 - 20.50\\

0.25\:r = 1\\

r = \frac{1}{0.25}\\

r = \frac{100}{25}\\

r = 4\\[/tex]
