Respuesta :

Answer:

(A) 30x+90=300

(B) $7

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the roller skating rink's entrance fee for one student.

So, the entrance fee for 30 students=30x

As each student pays a $3 fee to rent skates

So, the fee for rent paid by 30 students= $3x30=$90

The total cost for the students to enter  the rink and rent skates= 30x+90

As given that total fee to enter  the rink and rent skates is $300.

Therefore, 30x+90=300

(A) The required equation is 30x+90=300.

(B) On solving the equation, we have

[tex]30x+90=300\\\\ \Rightarrow 30x=300-90 \\\\\Rightarrow 30x=210 \\\\\Rightarrow x=210/30 \\\\\Rightarrow x=7[/tex]

Hence, the roller skating rink's entrance fee is $7.
